PCI Modules Installation

Installation Considerations

For mounting positions and minimum clearances, the PCI modules are mounted according to the rules defined for the controllers. Refer to the site requirements for the installation of the system.

NOTE: The PCI module is designed to operate within the same temperature range as the controllers, including the controller de-rating for extended temperature operation, and temperature restrictions associated with the mounting positions.

NOTICE

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE

oVerify that empty PCI slots have their covers in place before applying power to the controller.

oDo not touch an exposed PCI connector.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

NOTICE

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE

oStore electronic components in their protective packaging until immediately before assembly.

oOnly touch modules on the housing.

oTake the necessary protective measures against electrostatic discharges.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.
