System Upgrade 8-19

Installing CPU/IO Module

Follow the procedure below to install the CPU/IO module:

The 320Fa-L model is used in the example quoted here. However steps you should take are the same for other models.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure to read "ANTI-STATIC MEASURES" (page 8-3) and "PREPARING YOUR SYSTEM FOR UPGRADE" (page 8-4) before starting installing or removing options.

1.Firmly hold the CP/IOU module with both hands and insert it into the rack.

Hold the CPU/IO module in such a way that its back panel connector faces the back of the rack and engage the guides of the

module and chassis, and insert it slowly.

2.Hold the handle to push the module as far as it goes.

3.Put the handle back in the position where it was.

The installed CPU/IO module will start automatically.

IMPORTANT:

Connect the cables that you disconnected before removing the CPU/IO module to where they were originally connected.

Connect cables while the handle is leaned toward you.

4.Secure the handle with the screws.

IMPORTANT:

„Secure the handle with the screws. If it is not secured by the screws, the CPU/IO will not be powered on.

„In some system statuses or settings, auto start up or integration does not take place when the module is connected. In such a case, check the status by using the Server Maintenance Utility or NEC ESMPRO Manager data viewer, and then power on by the module POWER switch or start up the IO and CPU modules.

„After installing CPU/IO module, always power on the module using the power switch.
