DETAILED STEPS

Step 1

Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection sockets on the

front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.

the alarm module into its power shelf bay.

Step 2

Using two hands to support and guide the alarm module, slide it into the far right bay on the power supply shelf until the

connector on the back of the alarm module makes contact with the connector on the backplane of the shelf. Verify that

the guide pin on the chassis front panel is correctly aligned with the hole on the front of the alarm module.

Caution

The alarm module weighs approximately 4.2 lb (2 kg). Because of the rack-mounted height of the chassis, you

should be especially careful while lifting and removing the alarm module. Use two hands when handling the

alarm module. It is safer to use a ladder to install or remove the alarm module.

Step 3

Seat the alarm module in the power shelf backplane by pressing it firmly into the chassis backplane connector.

Step 4

Use the screwdriver to turn the captive screw at the bottom of the alarm module clockwise to seat the alarm module

connectors in the connectors on the power shelf interface panel.

What to do next

After performing this task, replace the upper grille on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis.
