The TELs are made of a special thin gauge vinyl with
self-adhesive backing. Once the CO attaches them on the chassis,
any attempt to open the chassis damages the TELs or the chassis
cover. Because the TELs have nonrepeated serial numbers, the
CO can inspect them for damage and compare them against the
applied serial numbers to verify whether the chassis has been
tampered with. TELs with curled corners, rips, and slices indicate
tampering. The word “FIPS” or “OPEN” may appear if the label
has been peeled back.
Note
Step 1 Copy the serial number and store in a secure place.
Step 2 If the chassis is mounted on a wall, uninstall it by following Steps 9-10 in Wall-Mount the Chassis, on page 28.
Step 3 Install the FIPS cover by holding the chassis right-side up and sliding the chassis into the FIPS cover front panel first.

Step 4 Turn the chassis with the FIPS cover installed over and install the three screws.
