12 8937/8937D — Instruction Manual

Installation

GeckoFlex Frame

Installation of the 8937 and 8937D module in a GeckoFlex frame is a process

of:

1. Installing the 8900V-R rear module into the rear of the frame,

2. Setting local jumper settings if configuring the module with on-board

controls,

3. Placing the 8937 module in the corresponding front frame slot, and

4. Cabling and terminating signal ports.

Module Installation Precautions

Please read and follow the precautions listed below before installing the

front and rear modules:

• Use standard anti-static procedures during installation. As modules

can be installed or removed when the GeckoFlex frame is powered up,

before removing the cover, please use an anti-static bracelet tied to a

metal part of the frame.

• Install the rear module first, then the front module, then the optical sub-

module option (if used).

• When installing or removing a rear module, loosen or tighten the

screws holding the retainer clips to the frame manually with the

retainer clip tool provided inside the front cover of the frame (751-

version frames only). For 650- version frames without the tool, use a

2 mm (5/64”) hex screwdriver. Please do not use an electric screw-

driver.

• Make every effort to leave the screws holding the retainer clips in place

(do not remove them completely). They are very small and can easily

drop into other equipment causing a shorting hazard. (Two turns of the

screw should be enough to loosen the screws, 3 turns or more will

remove it.)

• When installing a rear module, tighten the screws on the retainer clips

just until snug. Do not apply more force than is necessary to seat the

rear module. Refer to the rear retainer screw torque specification under

Mechanical in Table 7 on page 41.
