Removing the Octel 300 Fan Tray

Use these procedures to remove the fan panel. Have the replacement unit ready before proceeding.
1. Unlock and open the door of the cabinet.
2. Put on an antistatic wrist strap. Connect it to an unpainted portion of the cabinet.
3. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the two captive screws on the front flange of the fan tray.
4. Move the floppy drive signal cable to the right so it does not interfere with removing the fan tray.
.Do not disconnect the floppy drive cable. There is enough relief in the cable to allow you to
remove the fan tray without disconnecting the cable.
5. Grip the front edge of the fan tray and pull it straight out of the cabinet.
Caution!
When the fan tray is removed, do not operate the
message server for more than four minutes.

Installing the Octel 300 Fan Tray

To install the fan tray,use the following procedures:
1. Place the fan tray edges into the two U-channels on either side of the cabinet under the card cage.
The floppy disk signal cable should be to the right of the fan tray.
2. Slide the fan tray into the message server so that the connector on the back of the assembly mates
fully with the connector in the cabinet. This is accomplished when the front flange of the fan tray
reaches or very nearly reaches the two small angle brackets on either side of the cabinet.
3. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the two captive screws attached to front flange of the fan tray.
4. If the message server is OFF, turn it ON. Verifythat all four fans are spinning.
