Replacing a fan card

The Firebox V200 operates with two fan cards. To view the status of each
fan card, check the Fan Card Status LEDs on the front of the unit. If one of
the five fans on a fan card is not operating, the status light for that card
turns from green to red. However, you must not remove a fan card with
an inoperative fan until a replacement is available. The fans that are still
operating on the fan card will help cool the appliance.

Attach an ESD strap to your wrist and to the grounding connector at
the back of the unit before opening the appliance or removing any
card or module. Electro-Static Discharge, ESD, can damage the board
or system. Wear the ESD strap at all times while handling both old
and new cards and modules.
Note: The appliance must be plugged in to a properly grounded
outlet for the grounding connector to function.
Set the metal tray of the new line card on the bottom edge of the slot
and slide the card along the two rails until the front of the card is flush
with the chassis front. Be careful not to bump the heat sink of the line
card on the top of the chassis opening.
Turn the latching screws clockwise until the card is fastened securely
to the appliance chassis.
During initialization, the Firebox V200 detects what software version
is on the host card and two line cards. If there is any difference
between the software versions, the following error message appears.
A discrepancy in software version on the host card and line cards has
been detected. Please perform a software update.
Follow the instructions that appear to perform a software update. The
software update loads the same software version on both the host and
line cards.
