Perform the following steps if you intend to install the optional EMI Intermodule
shields and/or blank EMI filler panels. Part numbers are listed under Optional
Accessories
 on page 9–9:
NOTE. It is only necessary to install the EMI intermodule shields if your VXIbus
module does not have EMI shielding. Backplane EMI DIN shields are standard.
1. Refer to Figure 1–14 and slide the EMI intermodule shields between the
grooves of the card guide on one side of each installed VXIbus module. This
is recommended to use with unshielded modules; the shielding may not be
compatible with some shielded modules. The shield conforms with the VXI
specification for intermodule shielding.
2. Install a blank EMI front panel for each empty slot, making sure that the
EMI shielding is in contact with the adjacent front panel.
