3 General Installation Information

3.1 Hardware Operational Testing

Hardware operational testing is designed to verify the functionality of the finalized construction of the hardware at the customer site. The demarcation line for the testing is up to and including the patch panel directly connected to the system. All cabling, alarm output, clock input, and other equipment is also verified operational per the Hardware Operational Test Manual provided with the test equipment..

attention:

If components arrive in containers that might have been subjected to extreme temperatures or variations in humidity (such as air transport), allow 6 hours for the components to acclimatize to your site conditions before operating.

3.3 Card Installation and Replacement

The frame arrives configured with the cards in place. After installing the frame in its final location, remove all cards prior to powering up the frame. Reinstall all cards in the control shelf, extension shelves, and other frames carefully to avoid possible faulty connections. When installing a card, be aware of possible electrostatic discharge or shorts.

warning:

Always wear a wrist strap or other electrostatic protection when handling electronic cards or electrostatic sensitive devices.

Cam-out/lock-in levers on the front edge of the card assist in insertion and removal of the card. Grasp the card at the top and bottom, as shown in the figure below, and slide the card into the appropriate slot. Using the card slot guides in the shelf, slide the card into the shelf until the connectors on the card seat with the connectors on the backplane. Press both tabs in until they lock the card in place. To ensure proper seating, the levers must be held in the release position until the locking tabs can engage with the upper and lower flange on the shelf. Once the locking tabs on the levers engage the shelf plane, the tabs are pressed to the card faceplate, and must be flush with the faceplate when the card is completely seated.

Part number, LEDs, text and bar code (CLEI and serial number) are located on the faceplate of each card. The cards in the frames are configured with specific functions and services.

3.4 Labeling

This section provides general labeling instructions for cables, frames, shelves, and fuse and alarm panels.

3.4.1 Cable Labeling

Before installing, use this procedure to label the cables to ensure connection to the proper ports and ease of future maintenance.

Tools

  • Installer’s Cable Running List

  • All cables listed in Installer’s Cable Running List

  • Any non-Oracle cables

  • Cable labels (including blank labels for non-Oracle cables)

  • Fine point marker

  1. Locate the Installer’s Cable Running List in the Equipment Specification for the site.
    Refer to for an example.

    Figure 3-2 Installer’s Cable Running List Example


    img/t_cable_labeling_im-fig1.jpg

  2. Locate the labels included with the cable shipment.
  3. Take one cable and identify the cable’s part number in the Cable Type column of the cable running list.
  4. Match the cable with its corresponding pair of labels:
    1. Go to the cable’s From column of the cable running list.
    2. Match the From column information to the From information on one label.
    3. Match the From column information to the To information on the other label.

    Note:

    The label for the connector end of these cables can be identified by the presence of a “J” number, for example: J32, that appears in the “From” area of the label.

    Note:

    Make sure that all cables specific to an A or B side are clearly labeled as A cable and B cable.
  5. Repeat 4for each cable to ensure that all labels are present and that originations and destinations of all cables are clearly identified.
  6. For cables that come from the factory with connectors already installed, apply the appropriate label onto each end of the cable approximately two inches from the connector.

    Note:

    Ensure that the labels are positioned so they are still readable after the cables are installed.
  7. For cables that need to be cut to the appropriate length: After the cable is cut to the appropriate length, affix labels with the item number approximately two inches from the end of the cable insulation.
  8. For cables not ordered through Oracle, confirm source, part number, and origination/destination points before labeling them.

    Note:

    All cables must be labeled “TO” and “FROM”
    After you have labeled all cables, you are ready for cable installation.

3.4.2 Fuse and Alarm Panel Labeling

EAGLE frames arrive from the factory with labels in place. If a frame is assembled at a site, a labeling kit may be necessary.

3.4.2.1 Label Kit for FAP (P/N 870-2804-001)

A label Kit contains sheets of die-cut stick-on labels for the FAP:

  • For FUSEBANK A

  • For FUSEBANK B

  1. Peel the individual die-cut label that designates a specific frame from one of the three die-cut sheets of labels.
  2. The label designates either CONTROL FRAME or EF-00 through EF-04. The labels must be pressed onto the drip tray of the correct frame.
  3. Press the sticky side of the label into the silk screened area on the front of the drip tray located just below the Fuse and Alarm Panel for the specific frame.
    Place the label marked FUSE BANK A on the left side of the drip tray faceplate. The label marked FUSE BANK B is placed on the right side of the drip tray faceplate.

3.4.2.2 Label Kit for FAP (P/N 870-1606-xx/870-2320-xx)

Label Kit (P/N 870-1915-02) contains large sheets of die-cut stick-on labels for the appropriate frames. There are three large sheets of die-cut, stick-on labels:

  • Sheet (P/N 658-0604-01) is for FUSEBANK A, CONTROLFRAME through EF-04

  • Sheet (P/N 658-0604-02) is for FUSEBANK B, CONTROLFRAME through EF-04

  • Sheet (P/N 658-0604-03) is for MISCFRAME

Also included in the Label Kit (P/N 870-1915-02) are smaller die-cut stick-on labels for different fuses relating to different amps and individual pieces of site-specific equipment; these are to be pressed into fuse OPEN spaces.

  1. Peel the individual die-cut label that designates a specific frame from one of the three large die-cut sheets of labels.
  2. Press the sticky side of the label into the silk screened area on the front of the faceplate of the Fuse and Alarm Panel (P/N 870-1606-xx) for the specific frame. (refer to Figure 5-8).

    The left side of the faceplate is marked A and the right side of the faceplate is marked B.

  3. The labels must be pressed into place on the front faceplate of the correct frame.

    The left side of the faceplate is marked A and the right side of the faceplate is marked B.

    Figure 3-4 FAP, Fuse Label Kit (P/N 870-1915-02)


    img/c_label_kit_for_fap_pn_870_1606_xx_870_2320_xx_hws-fig1.jpg

The label designates CONTROLFRAME or EF-00 through EF-04.

There are also labels for the MISCFRAME.
