Carefully and gently pull out the daughter board from the latching connectors, using both hands, gripping the board near the latch-up connectors as shown in Fig. 3.5.3b . If the

Follow the step 8 to complete the process successfully.

NOTE:1. If the modular slot has not being used and moved to other unit, the empty slot must be covered with Blank cover, to maintain proper air-inflow inside the unit and keep off from dust and other unavoidable substance, otherwise can cause a failure in the Switch.

2.If the PM module in the modular slot is not being installed properly or loose in connection, the MNS-6K management software will not boot-up properly and a error will generate as –{ failed to read register device type (offset 0x1600) on slot “A or B or C or D”}, whichever the slot has been used.

3.Always boot-up the Switch after any new module installation on modular slot to confirm the successful installation, before placing the chassis cover.
