Procedure
1.
Open the ejector handles completely to approximately 45 degrees. Orient the
blade so that the handles are toward you and the flat metal side is facing
down.
2. Follow these steps to insert each blade into the slot.
a. Align the blade in the slot with the flat metal side of the blade at the
bottom (blade power and status LEDs are on the left).
b. Carefully slide the blade into the slot using your thumbs on the blade face.
When the blade is about 2.54 cm (1 in.) from the chassis, you should feel
resistance as the blade connectors meet the backplane connectors.
CAUTION:
To avoid damaging blade and chassis, do not push the blade into a slot
or pull the blade from a slot using the ejector handles.
c.
Continue pushing with your thumbs until the ejectors move in towards the
blade slightly indicating that the connectors are engaged.
d. Push the ejector handles fully in towards the blade to seat it completely in
the slot. As you move the handles, you will hear connectors engaging the
backplane connector and possibly a slight popping noise. This is normal
and is due to the dense backplane.
3. Tighten the captive for each ejector using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
Note: Be sure that captive screws are tightened. If not, high pressure from
fan operation may unseat blade from chassis connectors.
4. Power up the device.
5. Connect the cables to the new CP blades.
