Chapter 2: Installation
Installing the Module
The APM6800
+
/APM6801
+
modules have a double-width back module. Due
to high levels of heat dissipation, the modules should not be installed in frames
without fans. The modules cannot be installed in FR6802
+
DM and 6800/7000
series frames.
These modules require no specialized installation or removal procedures.
However, if you are installing both front and rear modules, ensure that the back
module is installed first before plugging in the front module. Likewise, ensure
that the front module is unplugged from the frame before removing the rear
module. See your
Frame Installation and Operation Manual
for information
about installing and operating an FR6802
+
or FR6822
+
frame and its
components.
An FR6802
+
RM (Rear Support Extension Rails for 6800
+
series frames)
option is recommended for APM6800
+
/APM6801
+
modules. See your
Frame
Installation and Operation Manual
for installation instructions.
Upgrading Module Firmware
This module’s firmware can be updated using CCS Pilot, CoPilot, or Navigator
version 3.1.1 or higher, or the HTTP software upgrade tool. In order to perform
these upgrades, your frame must be equipped with a 6800
+
ETH module. See
your frame manual for more information.
Firmware upgrades for the APM6800
+
/APM6801
+
can also provide firmware
upgrades for the Neural audio processing submodule. In the event firmware for
the submodule is upgraded, the module will take approximately 2.5 minutes to
fully start up while new firmware is loaded. During this time the card-edge
LEDs will flash back and forth. Once this time has elapsed the module will
become controllable. Subsequent module start-ups will resume to the normal 8
seconds.
