2.0 INSTALLATION
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
In most cases the VX402C-64 is individually sealed and packaged for shipment. Verify that there
has been no damage to the shipping container. If damage exists then the container should be
retained as it will provide evidence of carrier caused problems. Such problems should be
reported to the carrier immediately as well as to C&H. If there is no damage to the shipping
container, carefully remove the module from its box and anti static bag and inspect for any signs
of physical damage. If damage exists, report immediately to C&H.
2.2 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
The VX402C-64 contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. When
handling the module for any reason, do so at a static-controlled workstation, whenever possible.
At a minimum, avoid work areas that are potential static sources, such as carpeted areas. Avoid
unnecessary contact with the components on the module.
2.3 INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Read the entire User's Manual before proceeding with the
installation and application of power.
If necessary, remove the shield from the VX402C-64 and configure the switches and jumpers.
Replace the shield and insert the carrier into the appropriate slot according to the desired priority.
Insert the VME module through the front panel of the VX402C-64. Push firmly until the VME
module’s rear connectors are fully inserted into the front connector of the VX402C-64. Apply
power. If no obvious problems exist, proceed to communicate with the VME module.
The VX402C-64 connectors require high insertion force to completely connect with the VME
module. If it is difficult to assemble the unit through the front panel, it is recommended that the
VX402C-64 shield be removed, and the boards be mated before insertion into the chassis.
2.4 PREPARATION FOR RESHIPMENT
If the module is to be shipped separately it should be enclosed in a suitable water and vapor proof
anti static bag. Heat seal or tape the bag to insure a moisture-proof closure. When sealing the
bag, keep trapped air volume to a minimum.
The shipping container should be a rigid box of sufficient size and strength to protect the
equipment from damage. If the module was received separately from a C&H system, then the
original module shipping container and packing material may be re-used if it is still in good
condition.
