Removing the Supervisor Engine 720
Warning
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.
Statement 1030
The following tools are required to perform the bootflash upgrade kit installation:
•
•
•
3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver for the captive installation screws on the supervisor engine
Antistatic mat or foam pad to support and protect the removed supervisor engine
Your own ESD-prevention equipment or the disposable grounding wrist strap included with all
upgrade kits, field-replaceable units (FRUs), and spares
Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Statement
1029
Warning
Caution
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution
when servicing. Statement 1034
Always use an ESD wrist strap when handling the Supervisor Engine 720 or coming in contact with
internal components.
To remove the supervisor engine, follow these steps:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Power down your system.
Disconnect any network interface cables attached to the supervisor engine.
Attach an ESD grounding strap to your wrist and to ground. (If you are unsure about the correct way to
instructions.)
Step 4
Verify that the captive installation screws on all of the modules in the chassis are tight. This step ensures
that the space created by the removed module is maintained.
Note
If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push
the modules toward the open slot, reducing the opening size and making it difficult to reinstall
the module.
Step 5
Loosen the two captive screws on the supervisor engine that is to be removed.

Attaching Your ESD Grounding Strap
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when modules or other FRUs are improperly
handled, results in intermittent or complete failures. Modules consist of printed circuit boards that are
fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral
components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, always use
an ESD grounding strap when handling modules.
Follow these guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
•
Always use an ESD wrist strap and ensure that it makes maximum contact with bare skin. ESD
grounding straps are available with banana plugs, metal spring clips, or alligator clips. All
Catalyst 6500 series chassis are equipped with a banana plug connector (identified by the ground
symbol next to the connector) on the front panel. If you have an older Catalyst 6500 series chassis
equipped with a plastic banana plug connector, we recommend that you use either the supplied ESD
grounding wrist strap (with a metal clip) or an ESD grounding wrist strap equipped with an alligator
clip. If you have a newer Catalyst 6500 series chassis that has a bare metal hole as the banana plug
connector (also identified by the ground symbol next to the connector), we recommend that you use
a personal ESD grounding strap equipped with a banana plug.
•
•
If you choose to use the disposable ESD wrist strap supplied with most FRUs or an ESD wrist strap
equipped with an alligator clip, you must attach the system ground lug to the chassis in order to
provide a proper grounding point for the ESD wrist strap.
Note
This system ground is also referred to as the network equipment building system (NEBS)
ground.
If your chassis does not have the system ground attached, you must install the system ground lug.
Refer to the online Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide for the procedure.

Attaching Your ESD Grounding Strap
Note
You do not need to attach a supplemental system ground wire to the system ground lug; the
lug provides a direct path to the bare metal of the chassis.
After you install the system ground lug, you can perform the procedure in this section.
To attach the ESD wrist strap, follow these steps:
Step 1
Attach the ESD wrist strap to bare skin as follows:
a. If you are using the ESD wrist strap supplied with the FRUs, open the wrist strap package and
unwrap the ESD wrist strap. Place the black conductive loop over your wrist and tighten the strap
so that it makes good contact with your bare skin.
b. If you are using an ESD wrist strap equipped with an alligator clip, open the package and remove
the ESD wrist strap. Locate the end of the wrist strap that attaches to your body and secure it to your
bare skin.
Step 2
Step 3
Grasp the spring or alligator clip on the ESD wrist strap and momentarily touch the clip to a bare metal
spot (unpainted surface) on the rack. We recommend that you touch the clip to an unpainted rack rail so
that any built-up static charge is then safely dissipated to the entire rack.
Attach either the spring clip or the alligator clip to the ground lug screw as follows (see Figure 13):
a. If you are using the ESD wrist strap that is supplied with the FRUs, squeeze the spring clip jaws
open, position the spring clip to one side of the system ground lug screw head, and slide the spring
clip over the lug screw head so that the spring clip jaws close behind the lug screw head.
Note
The spring clip jaws do not open wide enough to fit directly over the head of the lug screw
or the lug barrel.
b. If you are using an ESD wrist strap that is equipped with an alligator clip, attach the alligator clip
directly over the head of the system ground lug screw or to the system ground lug barrel.

Module Handling Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when handling modules:
•
Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or
connectors.
•
Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding container.
If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding
container.
•
Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.
Caution
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be
between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).

Safety Warning Translations
Statement 1029—Blank Faceplates and Cover Panels
Warning
Waarschuwing
Varoitus
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference
(EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis.
Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement
Lege vlakplaten en afdekpanelen vervullen drie belangrijke functies: ze voorkomen blootstelling
aan gevaarlijke voltages en stroom binnenin het frame, ze bevatten elektromagnetische storing
(EMI) hetgeen andere apparaten kan verstoren en ze leiden de stroom van koellucht door het frame.
Het systeem niet bedienen tenzij alle kaarten, vlakplaten en afdekkingen aan de voor- en achterkant
zich op hun plaats bevinden.
Tyhjillä tasolaikoilla ja suojapaneeleilla on kolme tärkeää käyttötarkoitusta: Ne suojaavat
asennuspohjan sisäisille vaarallisille jännitteille ja sähkövirralle altistumiselta; ne pitävät
sisällään elektromagneettisen häiriön (EMI), joka voi häiritä muita laitteita; ja ne suuntaavat
tuuletusilman asennuspohjan läpi. Järjestelmää ei saa käyttää, elleivät kaikki tasolaikat, etukannet
ja takakannet ole kunnolla paikoillaan.
Attention
Ne jamais faire fonctionner le système sans que l’intégralité des cartes, des plaques métalliques et
des panneaux avant et arrière ne soient fixés à leur emplacement. Ceux-ci remplissent trois
fonctions essentielles : ils évitent tout risque de contact avec des tensions et des courants
dangereux à l’intérieur du châssis, ils évitent toute diffusion d’interférences électromagnétiques
qui pourraient perturber le fonctionnement des autres équipements, et ils canalisent le flux d’air de
refroidissement dans le châssis.
Warnung
Blanke Faceplates und Abdeckungen haben drei wichtigen Funktionen: (1) Sie schützen vor
gefährlichen Spannungen und Strom innerhalb des Chassis; (2) sie halten elektromagnetische
Interferenzen (EMI) zurück, die andere Geräte stören könnten; (3) sie lenken den kühlenden
Luftstrom durch das Chassis. Das System darf nur betrieben werden, wenn alle Karten, Faceplates,
Voder- und Rückabdeckungen an Ort und Stelle sind.
Avvertenza
Le piattaforme bianche e i panelli di protezione hanno tre funzioni importanti: Evitano l'esposizione
a voltaggi e correnti elettriche pericolose nello chassis, trattengono le interferenze
elettromagnetiche (EMI) che potrebbero scombussolare altri apparati e dirigono il flusso di aria per
il raffreddamento attraverso lo chassis. Non mettete in funzione il sistema se le schede, le
piattaforme, i panelli frontali e posteriori non sono in posizione.
Advarsel
Aviso
Blanke ytterplater og deksler sørger for tre viktige funksjoner: de forhindrer utsettelse for farlig
spenning og strøm inni kabinettet; de inneholder elektromagnetisk forstyrrelse (EMI) som kan
avbryte annet utstyr, og de dirigerer luftavkjølingsstrømmen gjennom kabinettet. Betjen ikke
systemet med mindre alle kort, ytterplater, frontdeksler og bakdeksler sitter på plass.
As faces furadas e os painéis de protecção desempenham três importantes funções: previnem
contra uma exposição perigosa a voltagens e correntes existentes no interior do chassis; previnem
contra interferência electromagnética (EMI) que poderá danificar outro equipamento; e canalizam
o fluxo do ar de refrigeração através do chassis. Não deverá operar o sistema sem que todas as
placas, faces, protecções anteriores e posteriores estejam nos seus lugares.

Safety Warning Translations
¡Advertencia!
Varning!
Las placas frontales y los paneles de relleno cumplen tres funciones importantes: evitan la
exposición a niveles peligrosos de voltaje y corriente dentro del chasis; reducen la interferencia
electromagnética (EMI) que podría perturbar la operación de otros equipos y dirigen el flujo de aire
de enfriamiento a través del chasis. No haga funcionar el sistema a menos que todas las tarjetas,
placas frontales, cubiertas frontales y cubiertas traseras estén en su lugar.
Tomma framplattor och skyddspaneler har tre viktiga funktioner: de förhindrar att personer utsätts
för farlig spänning och ström som finns inuti chassit; de innehåller elektromagnetisk interferens
(EMI) som kan störa annan utrustning; och de styr riktningen på kylluftsflödet genom chassit. Använd
inte systemet om inte alla kort, framplattor, fram- och bakskydd är på plats.
Aviso
Plaquetas vazias e painéis de proteção têm três funções importantes: impedem a exposição a
tensões e correntes elétricas perigosas dentro do chassi; apresentam interferência
eletromagnética (EMI) que pode danificar outros equipamentos: direcionam o fluxo do ar
refrigerado pelo chassi. Não opere o sistema a menos que todas as placas, plaquetas, tampas
frontais e tampas traseiras estejam em seu devido lugar.
Advarsel
Blanke frontplader og sidepaneler tjener tre vigtige formål: de forhinder udsættelse for farlig
spænding og strøm inde i chassiset, de isolerer elektromagnetisk interferens (EMI), der kan forstyre
andet udstyr, og de leder en strøm af kølig luft gennem chassiset. Betjen ikke systemet medmindre
alle kort, frontplader, sidepaneler og bagpaneler er på plads.

Submitting a Service Request
Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and
S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require
product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides
recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service
request is assigned to a Cisco engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:
For S1 or S2 service requests, or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone.
(S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.)
Cisco engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business
operations running smoothly.
To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411
Australia: 1 800 805 227
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553 2447
For a complete list of Cisco TAC contacts, go to this URL:
Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—An existing network is “down” or there is a critical impact to your business operations.
You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operations are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and
Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of the network is impaired while most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
