Note The ATCA-C110/1G is designed to operate as an AdvancedTCA node board. Refer to
Verify Slot Usage on page 19 for more details. The installation procedure assumes that the
board is being hot-inserted into a live chassis. The procedure for a cold insertion (when the
chassis is not powered) is the same, except that you need not wait for the blue LED indications
to proceed.

Insert the blade by holding the injector levers—do not exert unnecessary pressure on
the face plate.
Step 1:Open the injector levers of your board (Stage 1 in Figure 1-13).
Step 2:Verify the proper slot for the carrier board you are inserting (see Verify Slot Usage on page 19).
Align the edges of the carrier board with the card cage rail guides in the appropriate slot.
Step 3:Using your thumbs, apply equal and steady pressure as necessary to carefully slide the carrier
board into the card cage rail guides (Stage 2 in Figure 1-13). Continue to gently push until the
blade connectors engage with the backplane connector. DO NOT FORCE THE BOARD INTO
THE BACKPLANE SLOT.
