Interface Processor Replacement Procedures
Use the following procedure to install an interface processor:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
18 Fast Serial Interface Processor (FSIP) Installation and Configuration
Ensure that a console terminal is connected to the RP (or RSP) Console port and that the
console is turned on.
Choose an available interface processor slot for the interface processor, and ensure that
the interface processor's cable is of a sufficient length to connect the interface processor
with any external equipment. We recommend that you install interface processors starting
with the slots closest to the RSPs and work out concentrically from there. This will help
prevent EMI.
Interface processors and interface processor fillers are secured with two captive
installation screws. (See Figure 8a.) Use a flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the captive
installation screws and remove the interface processor filler (or the existing interface
processor) from the slot. If you remove an interface processor, immediately place it in an
antistatic bag to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge.
