CAUTION: Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge.
Use proper anti-static protection.
• Keep the replacement component in the ESD bag until needed.
• Wear an ESD wrist strap grounded to an unpainted surface of
the chassis.
• If an ESD wrist strap is unavailable, touch an unpainted surface
of the chassis before handling the component.
• Never touch connector pins.
Removing the air management blank
CAUTION: When upgrading an existing operational system
with an I/O module, removing the blank impacts the airflow and
cooling ability of the device. To avoid possible overheating, insert
the I/O module as quickly as possible. If the internal temperature
exceeds acceptable limits, the enclosure may overheat and
automatically shut down or restart.
NOTE: For clarity, only relevant details are shown in these
illustrations.
