Circuit board removal procedure

Procedure

Attach an ESD grounding wrist strap.
Remove the cables (PCI card, 10/100 BaseT, Com1, etc.) from the face of the board.
Loosen the faceplate holding screws. These screws are captive to the faceplate and do not need to be completely removed.

Note: If the board is double wide, there are four faceplate holding screws to remove (SRF/TRF board and power supply boards).
Using your thumb, push in the grey release tabs, and gently pull the extractor tabs located on the top and bottom of the circuit board. The lever action of the ejector disengages the circuit board connections from the chassis.

Note: The AGP and SCP boards do not have release tabs.

Figure 5. Faceplate release tabs
Being careful not to bend or bind the card in any way, slide the circuit board all the way out of the card cage.

Note: Handle the circuit boards only by the faceplate, ejector, and board edges.
Place the card in an appropriate shipping package, or discard if applicable.

Circuit board replacement

Procedure

Remove the packing material from the replacement board, and gently slide the circuit board along the slot guides into the chassis.

DANGER

Possible equipment damage!

Exercise extreme caution when removing and replacing circuit boards.

All boards that have female connectors (shown in Figure 6) must be carefully disengaged, and re-engaged to the male pins located on the backplane chassis. If any of the pins are damaged, the entire chassis needs to be replaced.

Gently engage the circuit board connectors with the backplane.

If the circuit board is not properly engaging the backplane, remove the board and check the connectors for bent or broken pins.
After the board ejectors contact the CAM chassis faceplate, gently push the ejectors into the center of the board. This causes the ejectors to insert the board into the chassis. (Do not use anything other than the ejectors to insert or remove the board from the chassis.)

Tighten, but do not overtighten, the faceplate holding screws to secure the circuit board to the card rack.
Where applicable, reattach the cables to the face of the board.
