Inserting a FortiGate-5001FA2 board into a chassis

To change or verify the JP3 jumper setting

To complete this procedure, you need:

A FortiGate-5001FA2 board

A tool for moving jumpers (optional)

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord

Caution: FortiGate-5001FA2 boards must be protected from static discharge and physical ! shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001FA2 boards at a static-free workstation.

Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling FortiGate-5001FA2 boards.

1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal surface on a chassis or frame.

2 If you have installed the FortiGate-5001FA2 board in a chassis, remove it.

For removal instructions, see “Removing a FortiGate-5001FA2 board from a chassis” on page 17.

3 Use Figure 3 to locate the jumper settings on the circuit board.

4 If required, carefully move the jumper to the correct setting.

5 You can now insert the board into a chassis and verify that it is operating correctly.

For inserting instructions, see “Inserting a FortiGate-5001FA2 board into a chassis” on page 13.

Inserting a FortiGate-5001FA2 board into a chassis

The following procedure describes how to correctly use the FortiGate-5001FA2 mounting components shown in Figure 4 to insert a FortiGate-5001FA2 board into a FortiGate-5000 series chassis slot.

The FortiGate-5001FA2 board left handle contacts to a hidden power switch. The board must be fully installed in a chassis slot and this handle must be closed and locked for the FortiGate-5001FA2 board to receive power and operate normally. If the FortiGate-5001FA2 board is not receiving power, the IPM LED glows blue and all other LEDs remain off.

It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate-5001FA2 board all the way into the chassis, to not use too much force on the handles, and to make sure that the handles are properly locked and engaged with the hidden power switch. Only then will the FortiGate-5001FA2 board power-on and start up correctly.
