Disconnect the Cisco 6100 Chassis Ground
To disconnect the Cisco 6100 chassis ground connection, complete the following steps:
Note
If you do not have 12 AWG wire installed, you will replace these wires with a larger gauge
wire later in the procedures.
Step 1
Use a 3/16-inch flat-head screwdriver to loosen the screw on the rack.
Step 2
Unhook the end of the copper wire that is around the screw on the rack.
Step 3
Loosen the compression screw provided on the grounding lug of the Cisco 6100.
Remove the other end of the wire.
Step 4
Tighten the compression screw.
Step 5
Stabilize the Rack
If you need to prepare the rack to accommodate the fan tray and install the thermal guard, you will need
to stabilize the rack for the new hardware components.
Verify that your Cisco 6100 Series system is installed from the bottom to the top of the rack so that the
rack remains stable. If your system is not installed from the bottom to the top of the rack, make the
necessary adjustments to the rack as discussed in the "Move Cisco 6100 Series System Hardware
Components" section on page 18.
Warning
To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take
special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines
are provided to ensure your safety:
- This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
- When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the
top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
- If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting
or servicing the unit in the rack.
