Zusammenfassung:	A method of docking an electronic circuit board. The method includes securing the electronic circuit board to a mounting plate that is mechanically linked to a rigid guide plate, wherein the electronic circuit board has a first connector. The rigid guide plate is inserted in a linear insertion direction between guides that are positioned adjacent a second connector configured to receive the first connector. The rigid guide plate insertion stops in a position where the first connector of the electronic circuit board is aligned with the second connector. Actuating a positioning handle that is accessible from a trailing edge of the guide plate causes rotation of a rotatable plate relative to the guide plate. Accordingly, rotation of the rotatable plate causes linear movement of the mounting plate in a second linear direction that is substantially perpendicular to the insertion direction, wherein the linear movement of the mounting plate causes the first connector of the electronic circuit board to be received into the second connector.
