Module Installation
Note A fully loaded mainframe can weigh over 36 kg (80 lbs). Install the mainframe into the rack before
installing the modules into the mainframe.
All modules install through the front of the mainframe. Installation (and removal) can be accomplished even when the
mainframe is rack-mounted. To install the modules in the mainframe, refer to Figure 2-5 and proceed as follows:
■ Use a flat-bladed screwdriver and release the pull tab by pressing down.
■ Extend the pull tab from the module so that the serial number is visible.
■ Slide the module into the slot until it is fully inserted in the mainframe.
■ Push the pull tab into the front of the module. The slot number should be visible below the pull tab.
Note If the module is not fully inserted in the mainframe, the pull tab will not retract into the module.
■ Install filler panels in the front of any unused mainframe slots.
■ Install the module connectors on the back of the mainframe.
Note Instructions for wiring and installing module connectors are included with each module.

Module Removal
All modules are removed through the front of the mainframe. Modules may be removed even when the mainframe is turned
on.
