4.1.11  

Performing a Visual Inspection 
 

Introduction  
Before starting up the system, you must perform a visual inspection of the hardware, cables, and the power supply. The procedure is shown in Table 4-9. The visual inspection must be performed while the system is disconnected from the power supply.
Caution  
Before beginning work, make sure that the system is grounded and disconnected from the power supply.
Observe the measures for protecting electrostatically sensitive devices (see Section 1.2.6 "Notes").

If necessary, plug the boards in again.  
 3.  
Check that a shielding cover has been attached for all boards with no connection options in the front cover.  
 
If necessary, replace missing shielding covers (refer to Page 4-35).  
 4.  
Check whether the slots for LUNA2 and for REALS (basic cabinet only) are covered by an outer panel.  
 
If necessary, attach the outer panel (see Page 4-37).  
 5.  
Check whether all system cabinets have been sealed at the rear with the connection and filler panels provided.  
 
Get additional connection and filler panels where required.  
 6.  
Check whether a separate grounding is connected to the main grounding terminals of all system cabinets.  
 
If necessary, ground the system as described in the following sections:  
 •   Section 4.1.3.4 "Grounding the System", for installing the standalone HiPath 3800
 •   Section 4.1.4.4 "Grounding the System", for installing the HiPath 3800 in the 19-inch cabinet.
 7.  
Check the local supply voltage.  
Digital multimeter  
 
 8.  
Only for installing HiPath 3800 as a standalone system:  
close all system cabinets with the front and back plastic covers provided.  
 
Fit the cover into the guides and press down on the cover unit it snaps into place.
After finishing the visual inspection, you can begin starting up the HiPath 3800 as described in Chapter 5 "Starting Up HiPath 3000".
