Always use a static grounding wrist strap before handling any board—do not attach the wrist 
strap to any painted surface on the chassis unit. 
Facing the rear of the BIC, remove the CRTC following these guidelines: 
•  Loosen the blue knurled knobs on both sides of the board. 
•  Pull firmly on the tabs located on the bottom of the CRTC. 
•  Gently slide the CRTC straight out and away from the chassis unit so as not to damage 
any components contained on the board. 
Remove the CRTC from its antistatic packaging and insert it into the chassis unit as shown in 
the following illustration, and follow these guidelines: 
•  Do not jam the board in any way while inserting it. 
•  Do not mount the board in any orientation other than that specified in the diagram. 
•  Insert the board straight into the chassis unit so as not to damage any components 
contained on the board. 
•  Press firmly to seat the board into the connectors within the chassis unit. 
•  Tighten the blue knurled knobs on each end of the board finger tight only—do not use a 
screwdriver to tighten the screws and do not over tighten. 
 
Place the old board in the antistatic packaging for shipment. 
Using the breakers on the PDU, turn up the BICAIC, and RBS 1 (and RBS 2 and RBS 3 if 
present), and then verify that the components are operational before proceeding. 
Wait approximately 3 minutes for the following indicators: 
•  RBS:  The STATUS LED for each group will light green in this order: A, B, and then C.  
•  RBS:  The RADIOBLADE STATUS LEDs will light red and then green for each present 
RadioBlade. If no RB is present, the LED will not light. To verify the contents of the RBS, 
pull out the shelf (powering off is not required) and inspect the RadioBlades and their 
respective status LEDs. Reinsert the RBS. To do this, press up on one side rail locking 
arm and press down on the other side rail locking arm, and then push the unit into the 
rack (see the following illustration).
