General Application and Line Card Information
Card Interlock Switch
Each card has a switched interlock mechanism that is integrated with the upper card ejector lever. This ensures proper
notification to the system before a card is removed. You cannot configure or place a card into service until you push the
card interlock switch upward. This locks the upper ejector lever in place and signals the system that the card is ready for
use.
Important:
You must push the interlock switch upward into position before the upper attaching screw on the
card will properly align with the screw hole in the chassis.
When you pull the interlock downward, it allows the upper ejector lever to be operated. This sliding lock mechanism
provides notification to the system before you physically remove a card from the chassis. This allows the system time to
migrate various processes on the particular operational card.The upper card ejector only operates when the slide lock is
pulled downward to the unlocked position.
Caution:
Failure to lower the interlock switch before operating the upper card ejector lever may result in
damage to the interlock switch and possibly the card itself.
The following shows an exploded view of how the card interlock switch works in conjunction with the ejector lever.
