Inserting a FPM-7620E module into a chassis

This section describes how to install a FPM-7620E module into a FortiGate-7000 series chassis slot 3 or up. The
procedure includes photographs to illustrate the procedure steps. The photos were taken in one of Fortinet's hardware
labs using a generic module and FortiGate-7000 chassis.
FPM-7620E modules are hot swappable. This procedure is the same whether or not the chassis is powered on.
To complete this procedure, you need the following equipment and tools:
a FPM-7620E
l
a FortiGate-7000 chassis with an empty slot
l
an electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
l
a Phillips screwdriver
l
1. Remove the FPM-7620E module from its packaging.
The module levers are closed when you first remove a new module from its packaging.
FPM-7620E Processing Module Guide
You must carefully slide the module all the way into the chassis slot, close the module levers
to seat the module into the slot, and tighten the secure screws to make sure the module is
fully engaged with the backplane and secured. You must also make sure that the power
sliders are fully closed by gently pushing them down.
Installation Highlights :
1. Module levers must be closed.
2. Secure screws must be tightened.
3. Power sliders must be fully closed for the module to get power and start up.
If the module is not receiving power all LEDs remain off.
Do not carry the FPM-7620E module by holding the module levers or secure screws. When
inserting or removing the FPM-7620E from a chassis slot, handle the module by the front
panel. The levers are not designed for carrying the module. If the levers become bent or
damaged, the FPM-7620E may not align correctly in the chassis slot.
FPM-7620Es must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle or work
with FPM-7620Es at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge
(ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling FPM-7620Es. Attach the ESD wrist strap to your
wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal surface on the chassis or frame. (An ESD wrist
strap is not visible in the photographs below because they were taken in an ESD safe lab
environment.)
