Adding an FC I/O Fan Blade
These instructions explain how to add an FC I/O fan blade to your library. You can add an FC I/O fan blade while the library is
powered on.
Required tools: None
1 Access the back of the 9U Library Expansion Module.
2 Remove the cover plate from blade bay to the right of the bay for the FC I/O blade.
Note: The recommended order of installing the FC I/O blade and fan blade in a 9U Library Expansion Module is
starting from the bottom two bays and moving up.
3 Press up and out to open the latch hooks on each side of the FC I/O fan blade. The LED must be at the bottom of the
blade.
1 I/O Fan blade
2 LED
3 Latch hooks, open
Caution: Forcing the blade into the bay can cause the pins to bend.
4 Evenly apply pressure to both sides of the blade and slide it into the expansion module until the latch hooks begin to
move towards the middle of the blade. Push the latch hooks towards the middle of the blade and into the locked
position. You will feel the blade pins connect with the 9U Library Expansion Module's backplane as the blade locks into
place.
Note: The LED for the FC I/O fan blade is on the bottom of the blade when the blade is correctly installed in the
9U Library Expansion Module.
5 Save the library configuration (see Saving the Library Configuration).
