33MAXDATA PLATINUM 5220 Server
4. Hot plug systems only: Use the hot-plug power and attention LEDs at the back of your
system or next to the PCI slots inside of the server chassis to ensure it is safe to remove the
card. The power LED next to a slot for which a card is to be added or removed must be OFF.
If the power LED is green or blinking, do not attempt to add or remove a card in that slot. See
the labels on the PCI duct for additional LED information and for LED placement inside of the
chassis.
A. PCI Slot 5 (PCI-X 64-bit / 133 MHz) D. PCI Slot 1 (PCI-X 64-bit / 133 MHz)
B.
PCI Slot 4 (PCI Express x8) E. Power LED (one for each PCI slot)
C. PCI Slot 3 (PCI Express x4) F. Attention LED (one for each hot-plug PCI slot)
5. Pull back on the blue or green rocker switch that holds the PCI bracket shield to the rear of the
chassis to remove the shield. See letter B in Figure 25. In a standard system, the rocker switch
is blue. In a hot plug system, the switch is green for any PCI slots that can be hot plugged
(slots 1, 3, 4, and 5) and it is blue for slots that are not hot pluggable under any circumstances.
6. Hot-plug systems only: when performing a hot removal, place the hot plug curtains on each
side of the card to be removed to prevent accidental contact with adjoining “live” cards.
7. If removing a card from the system, pull up on the card to remove it.
8. Insert the PCI card into the PCI slot on the server board. See letter C in Figure 25. In a hot-plug
system, stand the hot-plug curtains on each side of the card to be installed and insert the card
between them to prevent accidental contact with adjoining “live” cards. Press firmly on the
top edge of the card until it is fully seated.
