The user must enter the number of the first Expander Chassis, e.g. 2 (but no more than 7), then select
the OK button. This must be repeated until all required chassis have been added to the display. The
number of chassis added must not exceed the maximum number detailed when the parameters of the
Processor were entered previously. For the purpose of this exercise, the number entered was two
which included the Controller Chassis.
NOTE: The maximum number of expander chassis that may be added is 27 making a total of 28
chassis in a configuration file (1 processor chassis and 27 expander chassis).
Once all required chassis have been added, the screen display will appear as shown in Figure 23
below.

At this point, it is necessary to ‘connect’ the Expander Chassis to the ‘master’ Trusted TM Expander
Interface Module in the Controller Chassis. By default, this will be the module in Slot 1 (left-hand
module). Connection is achieved by placing the cursor on the left-hand edge of the Expander Chassis
shown as Chassis 2, then pressing the left-hand mouse button. This will cause the Chassis
Connection window shown in Figure 24 to be displayed.
