STEP 2:
INSTALL THE RMC
a.
Loosen the two captive screws that secure
the card cage to the back of the library.
b.
Slide the card cage out of the library using
the handle.
c.
Locate the expansion slot on the far right-
hand side of the card cage. This is on your
right as you face the back panel.
If this is a first-time installation,
remove
the slot cover plate and hold-down clamp.
To do this, remove the mounting screws
securing the cover plate to the card cage
and then lift the plate out. Then, remove
the screws that secure the hold-down
clamp to the side of the card cage. Save
the clamp and mounting screws for use
later in this installation. Save the cover
plate for future use.
If you are replacing an RMC,
remove the existing RMC as follows. Disconnect the interconnect cable from the
existing RMC and the library serial port. Remove the hold-down clamp screws from the side of the card cage and set
the hold-down clamp aside. Remove the screws that secure the RMC to the card cage, and then lift the RMC out of the
library expansion slot. Set the RMC and cable that you just removed aside.
d.
Carefully remove the new RMC from its antistatic packaging. Hold the
RMC by the edges; avoid contact with RMC components and connectors.
e.
Insert the RMC into the expansion slot. Press down gently on the card
edge until the card is securely seated.
f.
Secure the RMC to the card cage frame using the two mounting screws
removed earlier.
g.
If you plan to install one or more Fibre Channel bridges (FC310 or
FC420), do so now following the instructions found in the
Quick
Reference Guide
shipped with the Fibre Channel bridge.
h.
Reattach the hold-down clamp to secure the card in the slot.
i.
Slide the card cage back into the library and secure the cage by
tightening the two captive screws.
