Turning on FortiGate-5020 chassis power
Once the FortiGate-5020 chassis is connected to two AC power sources you can turn on the power by switching on the circuit breakers at the back of the FortiGate-5020 chassis (see Figure 2 on page 6 for location of the circuit breakers).
The FortiGate-5020 chassis should power up. If the FortiGate-5020 is operating correctly, from the grille at the panel at the top of the FortiGate-5020 chassis you should be able to see that the LEDs of both FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are lit. As well the PSU A and PSU B LEDs on the right side of the chassis front panel should be lit (see Figure 1 on page 5).
In addition, if any FortiGate-5000 series modules have been installed in the chassis they should power on and their front panel LEDs should indicate that they are operating normally. If any of these LEDs are not lit, there may be problems with the FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies.
Inserting FortiGate-5000 series modules into a FortiGate-5020 chassis
You can insert FortiGate-5001SX or FortiGate-5001FA2 modules into the FortiGate-5020 chassis. Arrange the modules in slots as required for your configuration. FortiGate-5001SX or FortiGate-5001FA2 modules can be installed in both of the FortiGate-5020 slots.
Your FortiGate-5020 chassis may have been shipped with temporary slot filler panels that include a warning message to read the FortiGate-5000 documentation before installing your product. The temporary slot fillers must be removed and all slots filled; either with FortiGate-5001SX or FortiGate-5001FA2 modules or with air baffle slot fillers. Air baffle slot fillers are similar to blank FortiGate-5000 modules and are required for proper cooling air flow.
Caution: FortiGate-5000 series modules must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5000 series modules at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap when handling FortiGate-5000 series modules.
Caution: Do not operate the FortiGate-5020 chassis with open slots on the front panel. For optimum cooling performance and safety, the slots must contain a FortiGate-5000 series module or an air baffle slot filler.
