Installing and Removing the Supervisor Engine
•When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.
•When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.
•Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or connectors.
•Place a removed component
•Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
•Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.
Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).
Installing the Supervisor Engine
Catalyst 4500 series switches have horizontal chassis slots that are numbered from top to bottom. On the Catalyst 4006, 4503, and 4506 switches, you can install the supervisor engine only in slot 1. On the Catalyst 4507R or 4510R switch, you install the primary supervisor engine in slot 1, and you can install an optional redundant supervisor engine in slot 2.
Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. Statement 1034
Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle supervisor engines by the carrier edges only.
To install a supervisor engine in a Catalyst 4500 series switch, follow this procedure:
Step 1 Take the necessary precautions to prevent ESD damage as described in the installation guide for your switch.
Step 2 Ensure that you have enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect directly to the supervisor engine ports.
Step 3 Loosen the captive installation screws that secure the
Step 4 Remove the supervisor engine filler plate or the existing supervisor engine from slot 1. If a switching module filler plate was installed, save it for future use. If you are removing an existing supervisor engine, see the “Removing the Supervisor Engine” section on page 16.
Step 5 To install the new supervisor engine, grasp the switching module front panel with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support the supervisor engine, as shown in Figure 2. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
