Installation
To relax the wedge lock, turn the wedge lock's screw counter-clockwise using a 2.5 mm
hex key until the screw is against the stop.
Warning!
Due care should be exercised when handling the board due to the fact that
the heat sink can get very hot - danger of burns. In addition, the surround-
ing rugged system components and chassis may be very hot.
If required, use protective gloves to handle the CP6003-RC when remov-
ing it.
5. Disengage the board from the backplane using the ejector handles as required until the
board is disengaged from the backplane.
6. After disengaging the board from the backplane, pull the board out of the slot.
7. Ensure that both extractor handle retaining screws are properly fastened.
8. Dispose of the board as required.

Hot Swap Procedures

The CP6003-RC is designed for hot swap operation. When installed in the system slot it is ca-
pable of supporting peripheral board hot swapping. When installed in a peripheral slot, its hot
swap capabilities depend on the type of backplane in use and the system controller's capabil-
ities. The reason for this being that communications with the system controller requires either
use of a packet switching backplane or via IPMI. In any event, hot swap is also a function of
the application running on the CP6003-RC.
Note ...
The hot swap functionality - hot swap LED and extractor handle hot swap
micro-switch - are not available on the CP6003-RC. Therefore, implementa-
tions requiring hot swap functionality must provide other means to support
these requirements. For example, provision of chassis external LEDs or
switches, or other appropriate operator accessible functionality. In any event,
application software including IPMI software must provide hot swap support.
3.3.3.1

System Master Hot Swap

Hot swapping of the CP6003-RC itself when used as the system controller is possible, but will
result in any event in a cold start of the CP6003-RC and consequently a reinitialization of all
peripheral boards actively interfacing with the CPCI bus. Exactly what transpires in such a sit-
uation is a function of the application and is not addressed in this manual. The user must refer
to appropriate application documentation for applicable procedures for this case. In any event,
the safety requirements above must be observed.
3.3.3.2

CP6003-RC Hot Swap Procedure

This procedure assumes that the system supports hot swapping, and that the replacement for
the board to be hot swapped is configured hardware and software wise for operation in the ap-
plication.
To hot swap the CP6003-RC proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the safety requirements indicated in Chapter 3.1 are observed. Particular at-
tention must not only be paid to the warning regarding the heat sink, but the user must
