Installation Guidelines

1. Verify that all power sources and excitation circuits are completely de-energized and locked out before handling internal hardware.
2. Observe standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions by wearing a grounded wrist strap while handling the drive board.
3. Inspect the module and edge connectors for any transit damage or contamination prior to insertion.
4. Align the board carefully with the designated card slots and backplane connectors within the UNITROL rack, then seat it firmly.
5. Secure any retention fasteners or locking levers according to standard mechanical assembly practices.
6. Restore control power and verify system diagnostics, LED indicators, and communication links through the primary control software before commissioning.
