6 Installation
There are 3 positions of the Module Handle:
1. Pushed all the way in (IN) - When IN the module sends a
signal to the Shelf Manager that the module is not in the
Hot Swap state and the Shelf Manager will communicate
with the MMC. This is the position that the Module Han-
dle should be in during normal operation.
2. Half Way (HW) - When the Module Handle is in the HW
position, the Hot Swap switch is open and the MMC will
send a Hot Swap event to the Shelf manager.
3. Out (OUT) - When the Module Handle is in the OUT
position the latching mechanism is released and the
module can be extracted.
The use of the Module Handle is used in conjunction with the Blue
LED. Please refer to the text below for more detailed instructions
on insertion and extraction.
