6-2 Control Panel
Each control panel on the front of the chassis must be connected to the JF1 connector on
its associated serverboard to provide you with system control buttons and status indicators.
(When viewed from the front of the chassis, the serverboard on the left is referred to as the
primary serverboard and the serverboard on the right as the secondary.)
These wires have been bundled together in a ribbon cable to simplify the connection.
Connect the cable from JF1 on the serverboard to the control panel PCB (printed circuit
board). Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 on both connectors. Pull all excess cabling
out of the airfl ow path. The LEDs inform you of system status for the serverboard it is
connected to. See Chapter 3 for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details
on JF1 can be found in Chapter 5.
