3. Verify that the system’s power LED is off (unlit), indicating that the system is
completely powered off.
Refer to the system’s documentation for the location of the power LED. For example,
on a Netra ct server, the power LED is on the front panel.
Once the system has been shut down and powered off, you can safely install the
adapter.

To Install the Front-Access Adapter in Cold-
Swap Mode
1. Retrieve the wrist strap from the adapter’s ship kit.
2. Attach the adhesive copper strip of the antistatic wrist strap to the metal chassis of
the system. Wrap the other end twice around your wrist, with the adhesive side
against your skin.
3. Locate the slot where you will install the adapter.
4. If the slot contains a factory installed filler panel, remove the filler panel before
installing the adapter.
Refer to the system’s documentation for instructions on how to remove the filler
panel. Typically, you will need to loosen the filler panel’s captive screws before
removing the panel from the system.
5. Remove the adapter from its antistatic envelope and place it on an ESD mat (if
available) near the system.
If an ESD mat is not available, you can place the adapter on the antistatic envelope it
was shipped in.
Before installing the adapter in the system, you will need to open the adapter’s
ejection levers (see
FIGURE 3-1
).
6. With the adapter resting on the on the mat, press the levers outward to open the
ejection levers.
The adapter may contain different types of ejection levers. For example,
FIGURE 3-2
shows two possible types of levers. The levers may also contain a locking
mechanism that must be unlocked before you can open the levers.
7. Lift up the adapter, and keeping it perfectly vertical, carefully slide the adapter
into the selected slot.
Be sure to align the top and bottom of the adapter into the slot’s card guides
(
FIGURE 3-3
). Also, make sure the ejection levers remain open while you slide the
adapter into the slot.
