Card Insertion or Removal
To avoid damaging equipment, be sure to turn off the interface cabinet power before inserting or removing any
cards in the CIC or connecting and or unplugging peripheral devices. To lower risk of electric shock, it is best to
unplug cabinets when inserting or removing cards.
Cards are anchored to the cabinet by a screw at the bottom of the faceplate that can be removed with a standard
#1 Phillips head screwdriver (see Figure 2.2 J). Six pointed "Torx" screws such as between the card type label
(Figure 2.2 D) and the indicator lights (Figure 2.2 E) are used for structural assembly and not intended to be
loosened.
Cards must be installed face up, displaying the text on the face panel readable from the front of the cabinets. IC-
124 cards have a handle on the bottom of the face panel to assist removing and inserting. Be sure to use the
handle (Figure 2.3 G) and avoid using other leverage points whenever possible. Only touch the edges of any
card, do not touch the components, as they can be damaged by static electricity (ESD). Make certain both top
and bottom edges are inserted into their plastic slides to guide them into proper seating.
The DIG-705 should be inserted in the leftmost card slot. Make sure all DIP-switches on IC-124 cards are in the
factory default OFF position. This enables automatic addressing based on the position of the card in the Control
Interface Cabinet.
