Installation Instructions

1. Ensure the rack is powered down before installation to avoid electrical hazards or module damage.

2. Insert the 3500/15 module into the left-most slot of the 3500 rack chassis, aligning it securely with the slot rails.

3. Connect the AC power input to the terminal block located at the rear of the module. Verify correct voltage range and frequency.

4. If redundancy is required, install a second 3500/15 module in the adjacent slot. The modules will automatically configure for redundant operation.

5. Secure all wiring and check all connections against the installation manual.

6. Power up the system and confirm module status using the front-panel indicators (e.g., OK, TX/RX).

7. Perform functional testing using the 3500 Configuration Software to ensure proper operation.
