Installing Line and I/O Modules

Installing a Line Module or an I/O Module

8
Tighten the module's captive screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
Alternately turn each screw several times before tightening them
completely to allow the module to sit correctly.
This section describes the procedures for installing line and I/O modules.
Note: Install the I/O module before you install the corresponding line module;
otherwise, the system diagnostics fail, and after the line module has tried to reboot,
its status will be "inactive" when you issue the show version command.
To install a module:
1
Ground yourself by using an antistatic wrist strap or other device.
2
Choose the slot where you want to insert the module.
Note: Line modules are in the front of the system, and I/O modules are in the back
of the system.
