Statement 1046
Step 5 After ensuring that all wire connections are secure,
reinstall the terminal block cover.
Replacing the Supervisor Engine
Before you can power up the system, you need to remove the supervisor engine from slot 1 (if a redundant supervisor engine is present, remove it from slot 2) and install the Supervisor Engine 720 or the Supervisor Engine 32 in slot 5 or 6.
Removing the Supervisor Engine
This section describes how to remove an existing supervisor engine from a chassis slot.
To remove a supervisor engine from the chassis, perform these steps:
Step 1 Disconnect any network interface cables attached to
the supervisor engine.
Step 2 Verify that the captive installation screws on all of
the modules in the chassis are tight. This step assures that the
space created by the removed supervisor engine is maintained.
Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the
electromagnetic interference (EMI) gaskets on the installed modules
will push the modules toward the open slot, reducing the opening
size and making it difficult to install the replacement module.
Step 3 Loosen the two captive installation screws on the
supervisor engine.
Step 4 Place your thumbs on the ejector levers located at the
top and bottom of the supervisor engine, and simultaneously rotate
the levers outward to unseat the supervisor engine from the
backplane connector.
Step 5 Grasp the edges of the supervisor engine, and slide
the supervisor engine straight out of the slot. Do not touch the
module circuitry.
Step 6 Place the supervisor engine on an antistatic mat or
antistatic foam.
Step 7 If the slot is to remain empty, install a module
filler plate to keep dust out of the chassis and to maintain proper
airflow through the chassis.
Installing the Supervisor Engine
This section describes how to install the Supervisor Engine 720 or the Supervisor Engine 32 in the Catalyst 6509-NEB switch and the Cisco OSR-7609 Router.
To prevent ESD damage, handle modules by the carrier
edges only. Note The Supervisor Engine 720 or Supervisor Engine 32 must
be installed in slot 5 or 6 of the Catalyst 6509NEB or Cisco
OSR7609 chassis.
To install the supervisor engine in the chassis, perform these steps:
Step 1 Choose a slot for the supervisor engine.
Step 2 Verify that there is enough clearance to accommodate
any interface equipment that you will connect directly to the
supervisor engine ports. If possible, place modules between empty
slots that contain only module filler plates.
Step 3 Verify that the captive installation screws are
tightened on all modules installed in the chassis. This assures
that the EMI gaskets on all modules are fully compressed in order
to maximize the opening space for the new module or the replacement
module.
Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI
gaskets on the installed modules will push adjacent modules toward
the open slot, reducing the opening size and making it difficult to
install the replacement module.
Step 4 Remove the module filler plate by removing the two
Phillips pan-head screws from the filler plate. To remove a module,
see the "Removing the Supervisor Engine"
section.
Step 5 Fully open both ejector levers on the supervisor
engine. (See Figure 15.)
Step 6 Position the supervisor engine in the slot. (See
Figure 15.) Make sure that you align the
sides of the module carrier with the slot guides on the top and
bottom of the slot.
Step 7 Carefully slide the supervisor engine into the slot
until the EMI gasket along the right edge of the supervisor engine
makes contact with the module in the slot adjacent to it and both
ejector levers have closed to approximately 45 degrees with respect
to the supervisor engine faceplate. (See Figure
16.)
Step 8 Using the thumb and forefinger of each hand, grasp the
two ejector levers and exert a slight pressure to the left,
deflecting the module approximately 0.040 inches (1 mm) to create a
small gap between the supervisor engine's EMI gasket and the module
adjacent to it. (See Figure 16.)
Do not exert too much pressure on the ejector levers.
They will bend and be damaged. Step 9 While pressing on the ejector levers, simultaneously
close them to fully seat the supervisor engine in the backplane
connector. The ejector levers are fully closed when they are flush
with the supervisor engine faceplate. (See Figure 17.)
Step 10 Tighten the two captive installation screws on the
supervisor engine.
Note Make sure the ejector levers are fully closed before
tightening the captive installation screws.

Powering Up the System
This section describes how to power up the system.
AC-Input Systems
To power up your AC-input system, follow these steps:
Step 1 Plug the power cord into the power supply, and tighten
the screw on the cable retention device.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC-input
power source.
In a system with dual power supplies, connect each
power supply to a separate input source. In case of a power source
failure, the second source will most likely still be available.
Step 3 Turn the power switch to the On (|) position on the
power supply. Switching the power switch to On also engages a pawl
that locks the power supply in the bay.
DC-Input Systems
To power up your DC-input system, follow these steps:
Step 1 Remove the tape from the circuit breaker switch
handle, and restore power by moving the circuit breaker switch
handle to the On (|) position.
Step 2 Turn the power switch to the On (|) position on the
power supply. Turning the power switch on also engages a pawl that
locks the power supply in the chassis.
Verifying Installation
After you have powered up the switch, verify the operation of the newly installed hardware as follows:
Step 1 Verify power supply operation by checking that the
power supply front panel LEDs are in these states:
•INPUT OK LED is green
•FAN OK LED is green
•OUTPUT FAIL LED is not lit
•42V LED is green
If the LEDs indicate a power problem, refer to the installation guide for your hardware platform for troubleshooting information.
Step 2 Verify the high speed fan tray operation by checking
that the fan tray LEDs are in these:
•INPUT POWER GOOD LED is green (there is one LED for
each power input; if both inputs are used, verify both LEDs)
•FAN FAIL LED is green
If the LEDs indicate a problem, refer to the installation guide for your hardware platform for troubleshooting information.
Step 3 Verify that the supervisor engine STATUS LED is lit.
Check the STATUS LED periodically. If the STATUS LED changes from
orange to green, the supervisor engine has successfully completed
the boot process and is now online. If the STATUS LED remains
orange or turns red, the supervisor engine has not successfully
completed the boot process and may have encountered an error.
