6.2 Installing a Module

1) Modules are static sensitive and should only be handled in an ESD-safe environment.

When packaging modules for shipment or storage, place in an ESD bag.

2) Line up the module board with the guides in the chassis and slide the module into the

EVENT 5800. The following illustration shows a photo of the guides. As the module

face plate comes flush with the face of the EVENT 5800, connectors on the rear of the

module will engage with the EVENT 5800 backplane. It is possible to encounter

interference from adjacent module rear panels. If this occurs, loosen the

thumbscrews holding the neighboring panels and shift them as necessary to ensure

fit.

a) The Mini I/O Module only has one guide on the right side. Take care to insert the

Mini I/O module carefully and correctly engage the rear connector with its mate

on the Standard I/O Module.
