Replace host interface card
You install a new host interface card (HIC) to replace the failed HIC with a new one.
Before you begin
• You have an ESD wristband, or you have taken other antistatic precautions.
• You have a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
• You have HICs, that are compatible with your controllers.
• You have removed the HIC that is being upgraded.
About this task
Attention: Possible loss of data access – Never install a
HIC in an Ef300 or EF600 controller canister if that HIC
was designed for another E-Series controller. In addition,
if you have a duplex configuration, both controllers and
both HICs must be identical. The presence of
incompatible or mismatched HICs causes the controllers
to lock down when you apply power.
Steps
1. Unpack the new HIC and the new HIC faceplate.
2. Align the single thumbscrew on the HIC with the corresponding holes on the controller, and
align the connector on the bottom of the HIC with the HIC interface connector on the
controller card.
Be careful not to scratch or bump the components on the bottom of the HIC or on the top of the
controller card.
3. Carefully lower the HIC into place, and seat the HIC connector by pressing gently on the HIC.
