Installing or replacing slot cards
Before installing a slot card, make sure that the software running on the system supports the
card. This is particularly important for a new card. If the card is not supported by your current
software, you must upgrade your system software before you install the card. If you do not
upgrade the system software first, the card may not function properly.
For information about software required for a particular slot card and for upgrade instructions,
see the release notes. For information about loading software on the MAX TNT unit and
recovering from a failed slot card installation, see the APX 8000/MAX TNT Administration
Guide.
If your package includes slot cards that are not already installed in your unit, insert the cards
now.
Identifying slot cards
Some early slot cards produced for both the MAX TNT and APX chassis have long lock
screws that extend about 3/16 inch (0.48cm) from the front panel. Slot cards originally
produced for only the MAX TNT chassis have short lock screws that extend about 1/16 inch
(.16cm) from the front panel. Slot cards currently in production for both chassis have medium
length lock screws that extend about 1/8 inch (32cm) from the front panel. Figure 3-15
illustrates the three types of lock screws. The procedure for installing long-lock-screw slot
cards in a MAX TNT chassis differs from the one for installing short and medium length
lock-screw slot cards.
