Chapter 2 Hardware Installation - Magma EB4-1U User Manual

Chapter 2
The following steps will guide you through the installation of your
MAGMA PCI Express to PCI Express Expansion chassis.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning
All PCIe cards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge. When
moving PCIe cards, it is best to carry the cards in anti-static
packaging. If you need to set a PCIe card down, be sure to place it
inside or on top of an anti-static surface. For more information, see
"Protecting Against Electrostatic
WARNING
High voltages are present inside the expansion chassis when the
unit's power cord is plugged into an electrical outlet. Disconnect the
power cord from its source before removing the enclosure cover.
Turning the system power off at the power on/off switch does not
remove power to components. High voltage is still present.
CAUTION
Before touching anything inside the enclosure, move to an ESD
station and follow proper ESD procedures. Failure to do so may
result in electrostatic discharge, damaging the computer or its
components. For more information, see
Electrostatic
STOP
If your MAGMA expansion chassis was not purchased directly from
Magma, Inc., you must check to ensure that it doesn't contain any
pre-installed PCIe cards.
Check the rear side of the chassis to see if any PCIe cards are visible
in the slots. If you see a PCIe card, you should continue installation
using instructions provided by your dealer. If no separate instructions
are available, remove the cover by using instructions in
Install Cards and
PCIe card is visible, then continue with the cable installation.
