Installing the Media2 blade
Step one: Install the Media2 blade into the MSE 8000 chassis
1 Remove the blade or blanking blade from the slot into which you are going to
install the Media2 blade:
i Using a No.1 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the screws in the retaining latches
with an anti-clockwise quarter turn.
ii Open both retaining latches on the front of the blade or blanking blade.
When open, a retaining latch is at a 90
° angle perpendicular to the front of
the blade.
Important: Before installing the Media2 blade into the MSE 8000, you
must read the safety information for the MSE 8000 chassis at:
http://www.codian.com/safety.htm
Although blades are hot-swappable parts, you must only remove one
blade at any time. Remove the power from the MSE 8000, if you need to
remove more than one blade at a time.
Before hot-swapping a blade, shut down the blade using the web interface.
Do not shut down a blade during a software upgrade or if the blade is
processing (for example if a conference is taking place on a Media blade).
The MSE8000 backplane uses high performance data connectors. Do not
remove Media2 blades unless necessary because doing so may reduce the
life of these connectors.
Make sure that you have the correct power requirements and sufficient
power in your PSU; for information on powering the MSE 8000 refer to
the Getting Started Guide that accompanied the chassis.
You must install either a blade or a blanking blade in each of the ten
positions in the chassis.
The Supervisor blade must be installed into slot 1 of the MSE 8000
chassis.
