6.
Pull the module out of the chassis, and place in an anti-static bag for storage if desired.
7.
Install a new module in the slot. For information about performing this task, see “Installing a New
Management Module”.
Installing a New Management Module
Before installing a module into the chassis, have the following on hand:
•
A new management module, which you can order from Foundry.
•
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the chassis.
WARNING:
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.
•
A #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver.
To install a new management module in the chassis, do the following:
1.
See “Installation Precautions” on page 7-2.
2.
If your Foundry chassis does not have redundant management modules, power down the chassis and
remove the power cables from the chassis power supplies.
3.
Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into the ESD connector located on the
chassis front.
4.
Remove the new management module from its packaging.
5.
Insert the module into the chassis slot as shown in Figure 7.1 and Figure 7.2, and slide the card along the
card guide until the ejectors on either side of the module move close to the module front panel.
6.
Push the ejectors toward the center of the module. This action will fully seat the module in the backplane.
7.
Use a #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver to tighten the two screws at either end of the management
module’s front panel.
