Interface Processor Installation Procedures
Step 3 Remove and replace the interface processor using the procedures in this publication.
Step 4 Wait 15 seconds.
Step 5 Reinsert the slave RSP2.
Figure 12 shows proper handling of an interface processor during installation.

This completes the procedure for removing and replacing an RSP2 in a Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7513 router.
Before you remove an interface processor that you will not replace, or replace an interface processor
component, we recommend you shut down (disable) the interfaces to prevent anomalies when you
reinstall the new or reconfigured interface processor. When you shut down an interface, it is designated
administratively down in the show command displays. (For the interface shutdown procedure, see the
“Upgrading Interface Processor Microcode Images” section on page 29.)
Use the following procedure to remove an interface processor:
Step 1 Disconnect the interface processor cables from the interface ports.
Step 2 Loosen the captive installation screws at the ends of the interface processor faceplate. (See Figure 13a.)
Caution Always use the ejector levers to remove or install an interface processor. Failure to do so can cause
erroneous system error messages, indicating a board failure.
Step 3 Place your thumbs on the upper and lower ejector levers and simultaneously push the top ejector lever
up and the bottom ejector lever down (in the opposite direction from that shown in Figure 13c) to
release an interface processor from the backplane connector.
