component temperature.

refer to the PrAMC-7311 Installation and Use manual.
4 Install the PrAMC-7311
The following procedure assumes that your system is powered. If
your system is unpowered, you can disregard the blue LED and skip
the respective step.
1. Identify the AMC bay to be used for the installation.
2. If the required AMC bay is occupied by an AMC filler panel, you
will need to remove the filler panel before proceeding with the
installation procedure.
The removal procedure for the filler panel is the same as
described in the Removal procedure which follows immediately
after this procedure. Ignore steps that mention the blue LED.
3. Make sure that the AMC module handle is in the extracted
position, pulled outward, away from the face plate.
4. Using your thumb, apply equal and steady pressure on the face
plate as necessary to carefully slide the AMC module into the
guides rails.
5. Continue to gently push the module along the guide rails till the
module is fully engaged with the connector. Avoid using
excessive force during this operation.
6. Wait for the blue LED to glow. The blue LED glows when the
AMC module is completely engaged with the connector.
7. Press module handle inwards toward the face plate to lock the
AMC module on AMC bay.
8. Wait for the blue LED to perform a series of long blinks. The blue
LED blinks when the handle is locked in position indicating
module detection and activation by the carrier board.
9. Observe blue LED status/activity. The module is fully installed
when the blue LED stops blinking and stays OFF.
5 Remove the PrAMC-7311
1. Remove any cables that are connected to the AMC module
face plate connectors.
2. Gently pull the module latch outward, approximately 3 mm from
its locked position.
3. Wait for the blue LED to first perform short blinks, and then glow
persistently.
4. Once the blue LED glows persistently, gently pull the AMC
module handle outward to disconnect the module from the AMC
connectors.
5. Continue to gently slide the module outward along the guide
rails.
