Replacing Processor Modules
Replacing Processor Modules
You can replace an interface processor in any of the eleven interface processor slots, numbered 0
through 5 (CyBus 0) and 8 through 12 (CyBus 1), from left to right, viewing the chassis from the
interface processor end. (See Figure 1.) Slot 6 or 7 can contain the RSP2. Blank processor module
fillers are installed in slots without processor modules to maintain consistent air flow through the
card cage.

Handling a Processor Module during Installation
Handle processor modules by the handles and carrier edges only to prevent ESD damage.
Turn OFF power to the chassis. If two power supplies are installed, the power switch on
each supply must be in the OFF (O) position.
Processor modules are secured with two captive installation screws. Use a number 1
Phillips or a 1/4-inch flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the two captive installation screws
and remove the processor module filler (or the existing processor module) from the slot to
be filled.
Hold the processor module handle with one hand, and place your other hand under the
carrier to support it. (See Figure 5.) Avoid touching the board.
Place the back of the processor module in the slot and align the carrier guides along the
sides of the processor module with the grooves in the top and bottom of the slot. (See
Figure 3a.)
While keeping the processor module at a 90-degree orientation to the backplane, carefully
slide the processor module into the slot until the processor module faceplate makes contact
with the ejector levers.
