3.2 UNPACKING THE SSR-600
Unpack the SSR-600 as follows:
1. Remove the shipping material from the box and carefully remove the
SSR-600.
2. Visually inspect the SSR-600. If there are any signs of damage,
contact Cabletron Systems (refer to the Getting Help section)
immediately.
3. Read any SSR-600 Release Notes included in the shipping box for any
important up-to-date information before proceeding.
3.3 INSTALLING OPTIONS
If you have purchased the SSR-600-ECM auxiliary card, it must be
installed before proceeding. The cover of the SSR-600 must be removed
to install this option. The SSR-600 cover does not need to be removed to
install the SWPIMs.
The Cabletron Systems Sliding WAN Physical Interface Modules
(SWPIMs) can be installed before or after the SSR-600-ECM installation.
Refer to Section 3.3.3.
3.3.1 Removing the SSR-600 Cover
This section describes how to remove the SSR-600 chassis cover. The
cover must be removed to install an SSR-600-ECM or to change switch
positions when necessary.
!
CAUTION
The SWPIM and SSR-600-ECM options are sensitive to static
discharges. Use a grounding strap and observe all static
precautions during installation. Failure to do so could result in
damage to the SWPIMs, SSR-600-ECM, or the SSR-600.
Do not remove the cover from the SSR-600 while power is
applied to the unit. Do not power up the device again until the
cover and screws are back in place.
