Installing the EMC board

After installing the EMC, the battery pack must charge in the server for three
hours before you can rely on it as a backup power source for the EMC. If the
battery pack is not fully charged before you use it, the batteries will not hold a
full charge.

To install the Emergency Management Card:

1 Turn off your monitor and your system, and disconnect the power cable and

all external cables. Make sure all indicators are out.

2 Remove the server covers as explained in “Removing and replacing the

server panels” on page 24.

3 Rotate down the I/O lockdown bracket at the slot where you intend to install

the card.

Expansion Slot Cover

4 Hold the EMC by its top edge or upper corners, and press it firmly into an

expansion slot on the motherboard. The tapered foot of the EMC retaining
bracket must fit into the mating slot in the expansion slot frame.

5 Align the rounded notch in the retaining bracket with the threaded hole in

the expansion slot frame. The retaining bracket fits into the space that was
occupied by the expansion slot cover.

6 Secure the I/O lockdown bracket for the installed card by pulling it away

from the card and rotating it forward and down. Return the I/O lockdown
bracket to the slot above it to the fully locked position.

7 If you connected a remote temperature probe to J10 on the EMC, attach the

sensor end of the cable to whatever you want to monitor. For example, you
might want to monitor the temperature of the server’s power supply, in
which case you would attach the sensor to that. If you want to monitor the
ambient air temperature, mount the sensor where it touches only air.

8 If you connected a feature connector cable to J9 on the EMC, connect the

other end of the cable to the feature connector on the server motherboard.
(See your server product guide for the connector’s location; some mother-
boards do not support this feature.)

9 Replace the panel covers and turn on the server.
