Installation of the INP peA
Install the INP PCA as follows:
1.
Ensure that the device address switch on the PCA is properly configured. (Refer to the
paragraph entitled "PCA Jumpers and Switches".)
2.
Turn off the DC power by setting the key-operated switch (located on the front of the
HP 3000/37 mainframe, as shown in Figure 2-2) to the 0 position. (The "DC" indicator light
on the front panel will go off.)
3.
Turn off the AC power by disconnecting the line-power cord (located on the back of the
HP 3000/37 mainframe). (The "AC" indicator light will go off.)
WARNING
All power must be off when inserting or removing any device or card in
the system.
4.
Remove all interconnecting cables from the board connectors on the back of the mainframe
card cage (or the Extender Box card cage) where the INP will be installed.
NOTE
It would be advisable to tag each cable as you remove the connectors to
ensure proper reinstallation.
5.
Unfasten the captive-screw camlocks that secure the back panel, and lift off the back panel
(containing the fan).
NOTE
If the back panel is to be completely removed, reach inside and unplug the
fan cord.
6.
Insert the INP PCA board into a vacant card cage slot in the main card cage or in the optional
Extender Box.
On a one-box HP 3000/37, the recommended slot for the INP in a typical installation is
slot 3.
(If
slot 3 is not availa ble, use any vacant slot.)
On a two-box HP 3000/37, the INP can be installed in any available slot, except the slot
directly above a Terminal Interface Controller (TIC). (The TIC uses the connectors for
two contiguous slots; so the slot above the TIC board is not available.)
