Hardware Installation and Configuration

4.Plug in the cable leading from the battery pack into the battery connector on the card (refer to Figure 3-1).

For proper operation make sure that the battery is fully charged after installation into the server. Charging takes about two hours after the server has been powered up, or after the optional AC/DC power adapter has been plugged in.

CAUTION The battery pack is already pre-charged. Be careful handling the battery pack – a short-circuit in the battery cable can damage the battery pack.

For detailed information about battery operation, replacement, recycling, and disposal, see Appendix E.

Connecting the I2C Cable to the Remote Control Card

HP TopTools Remote Control provides an I2C/IPMB interface. This 4-pin connector provides access to the I2C/IPMB bus on the server system board. It allows remote monitoring of all sensors (for example, voltages and temperatures) built into the system board, as well as access to the System Event Log (SEL) and control of the front panel power and reset buttons.

Before installing the HP TopTools Remote Control card in the server, you need to connect the I2C cable to the card. To connect the I2C cable:

1.Locate the I2C cable connector on the HP TopTools Remote Control card. You'll find it next to and just below the battery pack connector. (Refer to Figure 3-2.)
