Extending a VLS6100, VLS6200, or VLS6500 Node from the Rack
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the rack is adequately
stabilized before extending a node from the rack.
WARNING!
Be careful when pressing the rail-release levers and sliding the component into or out of the rack. The
sliding rails could pinch your fingertips.
To extend a node from the rack:
1. Loosen the thumbscrews that secure the node faceplate to the front of the rack.
2. Extend the node on the rack rails until the node rail-release latches engage.
3. After performing the replacement procedure, slide the node back into the rack:
a. Press the node rail-release latches and slide the node fully into the rack.
b. Secure the node by tightening the thumbscrews.
