shutdown
, the module can be inserted.
·
!
WARNINGS
·
Correct anti-static protection steps should be taken while handling circuit boards.
·
Cards must never be added to or removed from the control unit while it has power connected.
·
Tools Required
·
o
5mm Flat-blade screwdriver.
·
o
Anti-static wrist strap and ground point.
Installing the card:
1. If not already done, ensure that the plastic cover that fits over the external ports on the card's faceplate is in place.
The plastic cover is supplied with the card.
2. Check that there is no power to the control unit. If the system is on, shutdown the system using one of the correct
shutdown methods
.
·
Do not simply switch off power to a system. Whenever possible a system should be switched off using a correct
shutdown method first.
3. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, remove the cover from the slot on the front of the control unit that will be used for
the module. This cover is no longer required but should be retained until installation has been completed.
4. Allowing the module to rest against the bottom of the slot, begin sliding it into the control unit. When half inserted,
check that the module rails have engaged with the slot edges by trying to gently rotate it. If the module rotates
remove it and begin inserting it again.
5. While inserting the module, also check to ensure that cables on the module do not interfere with the insertion
operation.
6. The module should slide in freely until almost fully inserted. At that point, apply pressure at the base of the front of
the module to complete insertion.
7. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, secure the module.
8. Once the module is installed, reapply power to the system. The system will go through its normal start up process.
The LEDs on the Unified Communications Module will also indicate the card's status, see
Module LEDs
. The
module is started once the lower LED changes to green with regular amber flashes.
9. The card now needs to be
initialized
.
