12. Insert the appropriate cable into the cable connector ports on each PIC on the FPC.
Secure the cables so that they are not supporting their own weight. Placing fasteners
on a loop helps to maintain its shape.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at
the fastening point.
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius.An arcsmaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
13. Use one of the following methods to bring the FPC online:
•
Press and hold the FPC online/offline button until the green OK LED next to the
button lights steadily, in about 5 seconds. The LEDs and online/offline button for
each FPC are located directly above it on the craft interface.
•
Issue the following CLI command:
user@host>request chassis fpc slot slot-number online
For more information about the command, see the CLI Explorer.
CAUTION: Afterthe OK LED lightssteadily, waitat least 30 secondsbefore
removing the FPC again, removing an FPC from a differentslot, or inserting
an FPC in a different slot.
You can also verify correct FPC and PIC functioning by issuing the show chassis fpc and
showchassis fpc pic-status commands described in “Maintaining MX240 FPCs” on page 387
and “Maintaining MX240 PICs” on page 395.
