The FortiGate-5001D handles align the board in the chassis slot and are used to insert
and eject the board from the slot. The right (bottom) handle activates a microswitch that
turns on or turns off power to the board. When the right (bottom) handle is open the
microswitch is off and the board cannot receive power. When the right (bottom) handle is
fully closed the microswitch is on and if the board is fully inserted into a chassis slot the
board can receive power.
You can use front panel reset switch to cycle the power and reset the board without
removing the board from the chassis. See
page
21.
The FortiGate-5001D board must be fully installed in a chassis slot, with the handles
closed and locked and retention screws fully tightened for the FortiGate-5001D board to
receive power and operate normally. If the FortiGate-5001D board is not receiving power,
the IPM LED glows solid blue and all other LEDs remain off. See
components" on page
6.
It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate-5001D board all the way into the chassis, to
avoid using excessive force on the handles, and to make sure that the handles are
properly locked. Only then will the FortiGate-5001D board power-on and start up
correctly.
FortiGate-5001D boards are hot swappable. The procedure for inserting
a FortiGate-5001D board into a chassis slot is the same whether or not the chassis is
powered on.
To insert a FortiGate-5001D board into a chassis slot
Do not carry the FortiGate-5001D board by holding the handles or retention screws.
When inserting or removing the FortiGate-5001D board from a chassis slot, handle the
board by the front panel. The handles are not designed for carrying the board. If the
handles become bent or damaged the FortiGate-5001D board may not align correctly in
the chassis slot.
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5001D board
• An ATCA chassis with an empty slot
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
FortiGate-5001D boards must be protected from static discharge and physical shock.
Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001D boards at a static-free workstation. Always
wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling
FortiGate-5001D boards.
1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an available ESD socket or wrist strap
terminal.
2 If required, remove the protective metal frame that the FortiGate-5001D board has
been shipped in.
3 Insert the FortiGate-5001D board into the empty slot in the chassis.
4 Unlock the handles by squeezing the handle locks.
