to your wrist and plug the cable from the antistatic wrist strap into the ESD grounding
receptacle at the upper right corner of the 6C105.
4. Remove the module from the plastic bag. (Save the bag in the event the module must be
reshipped.) Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module.
Immediately contact Cabletron Systems. Refer to Section 1.2.

installed. Install the module in the chassis by aligning the module circuit card between the upper
and lower metal rail guides of the desired slot, sliding it into the chassis, and locking down the
top and bottom plastic locking tabs, as shown in Figure 3-1. Take care that the module slides in
straight and properly engages the backplane connectors.
7. If the chassis in which the module is installed was powered down for the installation, turn it
back on. Check to see that the CPU LED settles at solid green after a few minutes. If the LED
does not turn solid green, refer to Chapter 4 for details.
