indicates that the blade announces its presence to the shelf management
controller.
NOTE: If an RTM is connected to the front blade, make sure that the handles of both the RTM
and the front blade are closed in order to power up the blade’s payload.
6. Wait until the blue LED is switched off, then tighten the face plate screws which secure
the blade to the shelf.
The switched off blue LED indicates that the blade’s payload has been
powered up and that the blade is active.
7. Connect cables to the face plate, if applicable.
6.2.2.2 Removing the Node Blade
This section describes how to remove the blade from an AdvancedTCA system.
Procedure - Remove Blade
The following procedure describes how to remove the blade from a system. It assumes that the
system is powered. If the system is non-powered, you can disregards the blue LED and thus skip
the respective step. In that case it is a purely mechanical procedure.
1. Unlatch the lower handle by squeezing the lever and the latch together and turning
the handle outward only enough to unlatch the handle from the face plate. Do not
rotate the handle fully outward.
The blue LED blinks indicating that the blade power-down process is
ongoing.
After the blade has been inserted, make sure that a boot image is present on the ATCA-
F120 or on the blade’s hard disk.
Data Loss
Removing the blade with the blue LED still blinking causes data loss.
Wait until the blue LED is permanently illuminated, before removing the blade.
