Before Installing the PXIe Modules

PXIe hardware does not support "hot-swap" capabilities (changing modules while power
is applied to the chassis). Before installing or removing a module to or from the chassis,
power down the chassis to prevent damage to the module

VSG Best Cooling Practices

The following are the recommended best practices to ensure proper and safe
module operating conditions:
— To maintain proper airflow within the chassis, all empty chassis slots must
— Ensure that adequate clearance is provided around all chassis vents, both
— Ensure that all the fan filters are clean and unobstructed.
— To the extent possible, install the chassis in a location with lower ambient
— If you have multiple modules and space is available in your chassis, leave an

and a filler panel are installed in the empty slots. Be aware that leaving an
empty slot between modules changes the length of inter-module cables, if
any, and may also cause the modules to be on different chassis backplane
