PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Preventive maintenance includes cleaning the unit periodically with a lint-free cloth. The
cleaning schedule depends on how clean or dirty the environment is.
CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
Ejector Rod for Card Jams
Corrective maintenance includes removing the card in case of power failure or card jam. In most
cases, resetting the unit will cause the card to automatically eject the card. To reset the unit
unplug the Power Supply connector (Figure 2-4) from the I/O connector and plug it back in.
If the card does not automatically eject, the card may be pushed out with a special tool, the
Ejector Rod, which is located in the Rear Panel of the unit, as shown in Figure 2-3.
