40 Chapter 3 Installing the Passport 8683POS Module
209564-A
Verifying installation
The Passport 8683POS Module front panel has an Online LED that indicates
whether or not the module has power applied and is initialized correctly. For
information on online LEDs, see “Online LED” on page 27.
Initialization
When the Passport 8683POS Module is installed into a Passport 8600 series
chassis, ensure that the Passport 8690SF module in the same chassis has a
PCMCIA card inserted and that the PCMCIA card contains the p80p3100.dld
image, which supports the Passport 8683POS Module. For more information
about the PCMCIA slot and the Passport 8690SF module, refer to Using the
Passport 8600 Modules.
The Passport 8690SF module retrieves the image file p80t3100.dld to download
to the Passport 8683POS Module. First, the Passport 8690SF module searches the
host flash memory for the file, then the PCMCIA card. The Passport 8690SF
module downloads the image file to the Passport 8683POS Module and identifies
which MDAs are installed. The screen displays following message:
Downloading POS image to slot <number> .........Done (file
name and image size.)
If the image file is not found in either the flash memory or the PCMCIA, the
screen displays this message:
POS image file name not found either in FLASH or PCMCIA.
If the image download is unsuccessful, the screen displays the following message:
Card is off line.
Note: You cannot configure the Passport 8683POS Module until the
online LED on the module is steadily lit and you have inserted at least
one MDA.
