Installing columns and modules
Standard 1.0 Modular Option EC Installation and Maintenance Guide November 1999
Note 1: References to Overlay 37 apply only to a Meridian Mail
module that is being added to an existing Meridian 1 column.
Enter Overlay 37 commands on the Meridian 1 console. Ignore
the references to Overlay 37 if you are not adding a module to
an existing Meridian 1 column.
Note 2: If you are installing a module in a DC system, you
cannot set power supply switches to on, as instructed at the end
of “Adding a Module to a Column,” because you have not yet
installed the power supply.
If you are installing a module in an AC system, leave the shelf
breakers off.
Module doors and I/O
cover
To install power supplies, disk drives, and tape drives, and to
check the printed circuit packs, you need to open the front door
of the module. To verify or change backplane switch settings,
and to verify, remove, or fit EVB terminators and address
jumper boards, you need to open the rear door of the module
and remove the
I/O cover. To install cables, you need to open
the rear door of the module and you may need to remove the I/O
cover.
For this reason, you should leave the module doors open after
you install the module.
Complete the installation of all modules of your Meridian Mail
system before you proceed to the next chapter.
Module identification
You can identify modules by a label at the right side of the front
of the case. Modules are numbered Module 0, 1, and 2. In this
manual, the modules are referred to as MM0, MM1, and MM2.
If you are expanding an existing system and are adding a new
module, the new module is shipped with a blank label.
Complete the label as follows:
• The module that contains Meridian Mail node 1 is module
MM0.
• The other module in any two-module system is module
MM1.
