1.1 Introduction
The MIC-3021/8 is a 6U 8-slot CompactPCI enclosure for rack or panel
mounting. It has eight 6U card slots, and has a device bay which can
accommodate devices and peripherals such as floppy disk drives and
hard disk drives. Its rugged construction and flexible modular design
allows users to configure it to meet the requirements of individual
applications.
The MIC-3021/8 has a 1U high fan module which provides forced air
cooling in the system. Two 86-CFM high-speed fans are mounted in a
hot-swappable tray directly underneath the card slots. The fan's
tachometer output enables the alarm module to monitor the speed of
the fans. Tachometer signals are transmitted to the system through a
6-pin connector on the fan backplane. A protective circuit has been
designed into the fan backplane to reduce electrical spikes and noise
while hot swapping. This design allows users to replace fans safely
without turning the system off.
The device bay itself accommodates up to four devices. It accepts
standard HDDs and FDDs; there is no need for expensive special
devices. Devices can be removed through the device bay front without
the need for disassembling the enclosure, providing the shortest
MTTR for device replacement. A lockable door prevents unauthorized
access to the devices and to the power on/off switch.
TheMIC-3021/8series has two models:MIC-3021/8-7Aand MIC-3021/
8-7R. MIC-3021/8-7A is equipped with an ATX power supply while
the MIC-3021/8-7R is equipped with a redundant power supply.

2.1 Initial inspection
We have carefully inspected the MIC-3021/8 mechanically and
electrically before shipping. It should be free of marks and scratches
and in perfect working order upon receipt.
As you unpack the MIC-3021/8, check it for signs of shipping damage
(damaged box, scratches, dents, etc.). If it is damaged or if it fails to
meet specifications, notify our service department or your local
representative immediately. Also notify the carrier. Retain the shipping
carton and packing material for inspection by the carrier. After inspec-
tion we will make arrangements to repair or replace the unit.
Warning! We strongly recommend that only qualified, experi-
enced personnel install or remove components and
that they practice extreme caution when doing so.

2.3 Installation Procedures
2.3.1 Card Installation and Removal
The CompactPCI connectors are firm and rigid, and require careful
handling while plugging and unplugging. Improper installation of a
card can easily damage the backplane of the chassis.
The system card can be installed only in the system slot. The
CompactPCI specification allows the system slot to be at any position
in the backplane. Do not insert the system card into any other slot, or
insert a peripheral card into the system slot. The MIC-3021/8 may
accept different backplanes, thus the location of the system slot may
vary. The system slot is marked by a triangle enclosing the slot
number. Please refer to the backplane user's manual.
The inject/eject handles on CompactPCI cards help you to install and
remove the cards easily and safely. Follow the procedures below to
install a card into a chassis:
To install a card:
1. Hold the card vertically. Be sure that the card is pointing in the
correct direction. The components of the card should be pointing
to the right-hand side.
2. Be sure that the handles of the card are not latched. Release the
handles if they are latched. Handles from different vendors may
have different latch designs.
Caution: Keep your fingers away from the latch hinges to
prevent your fingers from getting pinched.
3. Insert the card into the chassis by sliding the upper and lower
edges of the card into the card guides.
4. Push the card into the slot gently by sliding the card along the card
guide until the handles meet the rectangular holes of the cross rails.

12 MIC-3021/8 User's Manual
Figure 2-3: Installing a card into the chassis
Note: If the card is correctly positioned and has been slid
all the way into the chassis, the handles should
match the rectangular holes. If not, remove the card
from the card guide and repeat step 3 again. Do not
try to install a card by forcing it into the chassis.
5. Pull the upper handle down and lift the lower handle up to push the
card into place.
6. Secure the card by locking the handles in place.
Keep your fingers
away from this area.
To remove a card:
1. Unscrew the screws on the card front panel. Release the locking
latches on the handles.
2. Lift the upper handle up and press the lower handle down to release
the card from the backplane.
3. Slide the card out.

Chapter 2 Installation 13
2.3.2 Before Operating the System
Before operating your system, first check your power supply source.
Adjust the switch on the power supply to the correct voltage.
Two mounting flanges are included for users who would like to install
the MIC-3021/8 on a 19" rack or on a panel. These flanges can be
installed on the front side for rack mounting or on the rear side for
panel mounting.
Four rubber stands can be attached to the bottom of the chassis for
desktop operation. They are not required for rack operation.
There are ventilation holes on the top and bottom of the chassis for
cooling. We advise you not to block these holes when installing the
chassis on a rack or placing it on a desktop.
