Safety Notices A danger notice indicates the presence of a hazard that has the potential of causing death or serious personal injury. Danger notices appear on the following pages: v viii v 27 A caution notice indicates the presence of a hazard that has the potential of causing moderate or minor personal injury.
Electrical Safety Observe the following safety instructions any time you are connecting or disconnecting devices attached to the workstation. DANGER An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
CAUTION: All IBM laser modules are designed so that there is never any human access to laser radiation above a class 1 level during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed service conditions. Data processing environments can contain equipment transmitting on system links with laser modules that operate at greater than class 1 power levels.

Installing Capacity Upgrade on Demand Capacity Upgrade on Demand is a flexibility option for your system that allows increased processor capacity when you want it. You can order the feature on a new system, or add it to an installed system to ensure that you have additional processing power available if you need it.
Installing a Non-Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter To install the non-hot-pluggable adapter, perform the following steps: 1. Turn off the power and unplug the system unit power cable from the electrical outlet. If the system is operating under AIX, type shutdown to power off the system. If you cannot use this method, you can power off the system by using the following operator panel power-button procedure.
10. Connect appropriate cables to the adapter. 11. Install the covers that you removed earlier, and return the drawer to the normal operating position. 12. Plug in the system unit power cables. 13. Turn on the power. Installing a Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter Note: If you have more than one I/O drawer, determine into which drawer you will install the adapter.
10. Lower the plastic stop over the adapter bracket and rotate the locking latch clockwise until it clicks into the locked position. Some full-length cards can be supported by rotating the blue adapter latch on the right end of the adapter counterclockwise.
When the power-off sequence is complete, the system will go into standby mode, as evidenced by: v OK appears in the primary operator panel display. v The primary I/O drawer operator panel LED will start blinking at a slow rate. v The CEC drawer power LED will start blinking at a slow rate.
