Unpack and Inspect the FCSA
NOTE: Whenever you handle an FCSA, follow standard operating practices to avoid damage
to the equipment. See “Review Standard Operating Practices” (page 34).
1. Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the grounding clip to the antistatic mat.
2. Place the package containing the FCSA on the antistatic mat.
3. Open the packing container and remove the FCSA.
CAUTION: When opening the packing container, be careful not to cut into the ESD protective
bag.
4. Visually inspect the FCSA and the backplane connector for damage. Use a flashlight, if
necessary, to check for bent or broken pins. If the FCSA is damaged or has a damaged
connector-pin socket, do not install it.
CAUTION: If you insert an FCSA that has a damaged socket into a slot, that FCSA's
backplane pins and the connectors on other adapter boards also inserted into that slot can
be damaged. Moving a damaged adapter from slot to slot can damage other slots and other
adapters.
Install the FCSA
1. Disconnect the grounding clip of your ESD wrist strap from the antistatic mat and connect
it to an unpainted metal surface on the FCSA.
2. Grasp the FCSA by its purple ejector latch in one hand, while supporting the bottom edge
of the FCSA with the other hand. Carry the FCSA to the rear of the IOAM enclosure. Set the
FCSA down on an antistatic mat with the ejector latch at the top.
