Replace a PA-7050 AC Power Supply
STEP 1 |
Put the provided ESD wrist strap on your wrist ensuring that the metal contact is touching
your skin. Then attach (snap) one end of the ground cable to the wrist strap and remove the
alligator clip from the banana clip on the other end of the ESD grounding cable. Plug the
banana clip end into one of the ESD ports located on the front of the chassis before handling
ESD sensitive hardware. For details on the ESD port location, see
.
STEP 2 |
Locate the failed power supply by viewing the system logs or by viewing the LED on the
front of the power supply. A red LED indicates a failed power supply. For details on the
power supply LEDs, see
Interpret the PA-7000 Series Firewall Power Supply LEDs
.
STEP 3 |
Power off the failed power supply; the switch is on the back of the chassis. Then unplug and
remove the power cord (leaving the cord in place can cause arcing inside the chassis).
The front power supplies correspond directly to the power connection on the back of
the chassis. For example, if you are facing the front of a PA-7050 chassis, the power
supply on the far left corresponds to the switch and cord located on the far right when
facing the back of the chassis.
STEP 4 |
Loosen the power supply thumb screw located at the top left of the power supply.
STEP 5 |
Pull the power supply ejector handle out and down from the top center of the power supply
to disengage it from the chassis and then slide the power supply out of the chassis using the
handle.
STEP 6 |
Remove the replacement power supply from the packaging and open the front ejector
handle until it is fully open.
