1. Connect the AC power source to the PXI Express chassis before installing the
module. The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical
damage while you install the module.
2. Ensure that the chassis is powered off.
3. Install a module into a chassis slot by first placing the module card PCB into
the front of the card guides (top and bottom), as shown in the following figure.
Slide the module to the rear of the chassis, making sure that the injector/
ejector handle is pushed down, as shown in the following figure.
4. When you begin to feel resistance, push up on the injector/ejector handle to
fully seat the module into the chassis frame. Secure the module front panel to
the chassis using the module front-panel mounting screws.
