the bottom right up to the top, then down to the bottom left, as required.
7 For any electrical FP with a control port cable connecting to a sparing
panel, fasten the D-sub connector of the cable to the labelled receptacle
on the faceplate. Refer to the figure “Types of connectors on Passport FP
cables” (page 323) and in the table “Actions to engage types of FP
connectors” (page 324). Run the control port cable parallel to its mate
cables from the same FP.
8 Repeat step 1 to step 7 for each other FP in the shelf moving from left to
right.
9 When all FPs in the shelf are connected, methodically check each
connection one after the other by repeating the engagement action. Avoid
bumping adjacent connectors. Never pull on the cable or connector to
confirm that it is engaged.
10 If the shelf is powered, wait until the FP LEDs cycle to eventually become
solid or fast flashing green to indicate in service.
If a LED is any other color after 5 minutes, there is a problem with the FP.
