Precautions 19 Precautions To avoid personal injury and equipment damage, review the following guidelines before handling Meridian 1 equipment. Power equipment There are no user-repairable components in the power system. If a power supply fails, the complete unit must be replaced. Do not disassemble a power supply under any circumstances.
To avoid card damage from static discharge, wear a properly connected antistatic wrist strap when you work on Meridian 1 equipment. If a wrist strap is not available, regularly touch one of the bare metal strips in a module to discharge static.
Hardware replacement guidelines Page 21 of 362 During replacement procedures: • Turn off the circuit breaker or switch for a module power supply before the power supply is removed or inserted. • In AC-powered systems, capacitors in the power supply must discharge. Wait five full minutes between turning off the circuit breaker and removing the power supply from the module.
Page 22 of 362 Hardware replacement guidelines Options 51C, 61C,and 81C cable guidelines To disconnect a cable from the Core/Network Module backplane, use the P0741489 Extraction Tool provided in the rear of the module (behind the I/O safety panel). CAUTION You must use the P0741489 Extraction Tool to disconnect cables from the backplane shrouds in the NT5D21 Core/Network Module.
Page 23
Hardware replacement guidelines Page 23 of 362 Before you connect cables to the backplane, visually inspect the backplane shroud connectors to make sure there are no bent pins. To connect cables: Orient the cable connector so the strain relief paddle is to the right. Partially insert the cable connector so its guides mate to the corresponding backplane connector.
