Installing Expansion Modules
The installation procedure is the same for all X460-G2 VIMs and clock modules, with the exception that
the VIMs use slotted retaining screws and the clock module uses Phillips retaining screws.
To install a versatile interface module or clock module, follow these steps:
1. Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to an appropriate
ground point on the rack.
2. Disconnect the switch power.
3. Remove the cover plate from the VIM or clock module slot:
a. Remove the retaining screws at the top corners of the slot cover plate, and set the screws aside
in a safe place.
b. Save the retaining screws to secure the new module in the switch.
c. Pull the cover plate away from the module slot.

4. Remove the new VIM or clock module from its anti-static packaging.
5. Install the VIM or clock module in the switch:
a. Carefully slide the module into the switch.
b. Insert and tighten the retaining screws you removed in step 3. The clock module uses Phillips
screws and the VIM modules use slotted screws.
