Connecting or removing modules

Additional modules may be connected to the Elite Slice G2. Modules should be attached to the Base Module in the following order, from top to bottom:
  • Video Ingest Module (required for the Microsoft SRS only)
  • Wireless Display Module (optional)
  • ODD Module (optional)
  • VESA plate (optional)

Connecting modules

Connecting modules

  caution:
Before connecting modules, turn off the Elite Slice G2 and disconnect it from any AC power source.
Modules cannot be “hot-plugged” or “hot-swapped.”
  1. Remove/disengage the security cable, if one is attached.
  2. Remove all removable media, such as USB flash drives.
  3. Turn off the Elite Slice G2 properly through the operating system, and then turn off any external devices.
  4. Disconnect the AC power cord from the Elite Slice G2 and disconnect any external devices.
  5. If the VESA plate is connected, slide the quick release latch to the unlocked position and remove the VESA plate.
  6. Align the module connection port on the underside of the Elite Slice G2 with the module expansion connector on the new module and press the computer down firmly.
    Figure : Aligning the module connection port with the module expansion connector
    You should hear a quiet click when the modules lock together. The module locks into place and hides the release latch of the module above it.
    Repeat until all modules have been connected.

Connecting the optional Slice VESA plate

If the VESA plate is connected, the Elite Slice G2 can be mounted onto a table.
  caution:
Before connecting the VESA plate, turn off the Elite Slice G2 and disconnect it from any AC power source.
  1. Slide the quick release latch on the VESA plate to the unlocked position. Position the connected modules over the VESA plate.
    The VESA plate does not have a module expansion connector. Be sure that the ports of the Elite Slice G2 and the quick release latch and security cable slot of the VESA plate are all on the same side.
  2. Press the modules down onto the VESA plate.
    Figure : Connecting the VESA plate
  3. Slide the quick release latch on the back of the VESA plate to the locked position to lock all modules together.
      caution:
    There are four tabs in the VESA plate. When you position the Elite Slice G2 configuration correctly onto the VESA plate and slide the quick release latch to the locked position, the four tabs lock the VESA plate to the Elite Slice G2 assembly. If the VESA plate is not correctly oriented, the quick release latch cannot be moved to the locked position and the modules are not secured.
    Figure : Locking the VESA plate to the Elite Slice G2 assembly
  4. Install a security cable in the VESA plate security cable slot to prevent the quick release latch from being unlocked and the modules from being separated.
    note:
    The security cable is designed to act as a deterrent, but it may not prevent the computer from being mishandled or stolen.

Removing modules

  caution:
Before disconnecting modules, turn off the Elite Slice G2 and disconnect it from any AC power source.
Modules cannot be “hot-plugged” or “hot-swapped.”
Modules must be removed one at a time, starting at the bottom. Removing the Base Module exposes the release latch of the module above it.
  1. Remove/disengage the security cable, if one is attached.
  2. Remove all removable media, such as USB flash drives.
  3. Turn off the Elite Slice G2 properly through the operating system, and then turn off any external devices.
  4. Disconnect the AC power cord from the Elite Slice G2 and disconnect any external devices.
  5. If the VESA plate is connected, slide the quick release latch on the back of the VESA plate to the unlocked position and lift the module stack off the VESA plate.
  6. Beginning at the bottom, remove additional modules by pressing the release latch (1) on the underside of each module until it releases the module (2) above it.
    Figure : Pressing a module release latch and removing the module

Connecting AC power

The Elite Slice G2 employs the HP Cable and Port Cover to supply power to the elements of the conferencing solution.
  1. Connect the Cable and Port Cover to the Elite Slice G2:
    1. Pull the port cover down (1) to expose the cable connectors.
    2. Pull the first and last connectors out (2) to each side.
    3. Beginning with the HDMI connector and finishing with the NIC connector, plug all middle connectors into the rear ports (3) on the Elite Slice G2.
    4. Connect side cables (4).
    5. Push the port cover back over the cable connectors (5) to protect and secure the connectors.
      Figure : Connecting the Cable and Port Cover to the Elite Slice G2
  2. Connect remaining equipment, such as a CoRC or a display, to the Cable and Port Cover.
  3. Connect the AC power cord to the power adapter (1) and the other end to an AC outlet (2) .
  4. Connect the power supply connector to the power connector on the Cable and Port Cover (3).
