Note Before you begin, install and configure your chassis and controller.
Caution To protect both yourself and the chassis from electrical hazards, leave the chassis off until you finish installing the PXIe-8267.
Attention Pour vous protéger, et protéger le châssis, contre les risques électriques, laissez le châssis éteint tant que vous n'avez pas terminé l'installation du PXIe-8267.
  1. Power off your PXI Express chassis, but leave it plugged in while installing the PXIe-8267. The power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you install the module.
  2. Locate an available PXI Express slot in the chassis. Do not install the PXIe-8267 in the controller slot (slot 1 in a PXI Express chassis).
  3. Remove or open any doors or covers blocking access to the slot in which you intend to install the PXIe-8267.
  4. Touch the metal part of the case to discharge any static electricity that might be on your clothes or body.
  5. Make sure the injector/ejector handle is in its downward position. Be sure to remove all connector packaging and protective caps from retaining screws on the module. Align the PXIe-8267 with the card guides on the top and bottom of the selected slot.
    Note Do not raise the injector/ejector handle as you insert the PXIe-8267. It will not insert properly unless the handle is in its downward position so that it does not interfere with the injector/ejector rail on the chassis.
  6. Hold the handle as you slowly slide the module into the chassis until the handle catches on the injector/ejector rail.
  7. Raise the injector/ejector handle until the module firmly seats into the backplane receptacle connectors. The front panel of the PXIe-8267 should be even with the front panel of the chassis.
  8. Tighten the bracket-retaining screws on the top and bottom of the front panel to secure the PXIe-8267 to the chassis.
  9. Replace or close any doors or covers to the chassis.
