  • Page 17: Installation

    Modular products require installation in a suitable PXI/LXI chassis. The module is designed for indoor use only. PREOPERATION CHECKS (UNPACKING) 1. Check the module for transport damage and report any damage immediately to Pickering Interfaces. Do not attempt to install the product if any damage is evident.
  • Page 18: Hardware Installation

    For a system comprising more than one chassis, turn ON the last chassis in the system followed by the penultimate, etc, and finally turn ON the external controller or chassis containing the system controller. 9. For Pickering Interfaces modular LXI installation there is no requirement to use any particular power up sequence.

    The Pickering Interfaces BIRST (Built-In Relay Self Test) Tool provides a simple means of testing selected Pickering Interfaces switching products, including this model. The tool can be used to find relay faults or to provide confirmation that a product is operating correctly, either as part of the regular system calibration or because a system fault is suspected and the switch system needs to be eliminated from the fault finding procedure.
