Maintenance
The most important characteristics
be periodically checked according th the instructions provided in
the sections "Operational check" and "Alignment procedcure".
To obtain the normal operating temperature,
with inserted module should
before starting the test. The specified alignment procedure
should be strictly observed.
When removing the case detach mains/line cord and any other
connected cables from case
Remove both screws on rear panel and, holding case firmly in
place, pull chassis forward out of case. When later replacing the
case, care should be taken to ensure that it properly fits under
the edges of the front and rear frames.
After removal of the two screws
chassis covers can be lifted. When reclosing the module, care
should be taken that the guides engage correctly with the front
chassis.
Operation of the module
Provided that all hints given in the operating instructions of the
I-NM 8001 Mainframe were followed —especially for the selec-
tion of the correct mains voltage —start of operation consists
practically of inserting the module into the right or left opening
of the mainframe. The following
