Chapter 2 System Setup
The following sections of this chapter show how to install the components and do
the maintenance.
2.1 Cards and Card Clamps Installation
Before installing the cards, the back cover should be removed first by releasing
screws as shown in the diagram below. Then, users can slowly slide the card in
and carefully press it into the appropriate slot of backplane. The card clamp is
designed to hold the add-on cards so as to let it be affixed securely into the slots
moreover to prevent them from vibrating. You may install the Card Clamp after
inserting all the add-on cards by following the steps below:
STEP 1: Place the Card Clamp into the chassis. Insert one side of the Card Clamp
to the fixed hole of the chassis.
STEP 2: If the add-on card is too short, use the holding clamp to hold the card
and fix the holding clamp using screws.
STEP 3: Put one screw on the other side of the Card Clamp then fasten it.
