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.
See the following documents for information about installing and removing the
FortiGate-5001SX or FortiGate-5001FA2 modules:

!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.
