6 Insert the FortiSwitch-5003A board into the empty slot in the chassis.
7 Carefully guide the board into the chassis using the rails in the slot.
Insert the board by applying moderate force to the front faceplate (not the
handles) to slide the board into the slot. The board should glide smoothly into the
chassis slot. If you encounter any resistance while sliding the board in, the board
could be aligned incorrectly. Pull the board back out and try inserting it again.
8 Slide the board in until the alignment pins are inserted half way into their sockets
in the chassis.
9 Turn both handles to their fully-closed positions.
The handles should hook into the sides of the chassis slot. Closing the handles
draws the FortiSwitch-5003A board into place in the chassis slot and into full
contact with the chassis backplane. The FortiSwitch-5003A front panel should be
in contact with the chassis front panel. When the handles are fully-closed they
lock into place.
As the right (bottom) handle closes the microswitch is turned on, supplying power
to the board. If the chassis is powered on the HS LED starts flashing blue. If the
board is aligned correctly, inserted all the way into the slot, and the right (bottom)
handle is properly closed the HS LED flashes blue for a few seconds. At the same
time the ACT and HTY LEDs turn green. After a few seconds the HS LED goes
out and the FortiSwitch-5003A firmware starts up. If the board is operating
correctly, the front panel LEDs are lit as described in Table 6.
If the board has not been inserted properly the HS LED changes to solid blue and
all other LEDS turn off. If this occurs, open the handles, slide the board part way
out, and repeat the insertion process.

Caution: To avoid damaging the lock, make sure you squeeze the handles fully to unlock
them before opening. The handles should pop easily out of the board front panel.
