Kaleido-X (14RU) Expansion

Expanding EXISTING Kaleido-X Frames

3 Enter the IP addresses currently used by Frame B.

4 Click Save, and then click Apply settings.

Frame A and Frame B should reboot automatically. If Frame B does not reboot
automatically, perform a hard reboot on Frame B only.

5 Open XAdmin, using what is now the expansion system IP address.

6 Click Status and options.

7 Verify that status information appears for all of the cards on both frames in the

expansion system (see

Viewing the Status of an Expansion Frame

, on page 69).

8 Check the frame and card statuses to make sure there are no problems or error

conditions. In particular, the Cable crossed and Cable plugged alarms on the KXO-EXP
cards should be normal (green).

Notes

• You may see messages on the monitor wall warning you that KX0 heads

are not assigned. This is normal.

• If one or more cards in a Kaleido-X frame is being upgraded (i.e. if a Live

Update is in progress), then it is not possible to apply any changes made
in XAdmin. If you click Apply settings in the XAdmin sidebar, an error
message will appear. This restriction also occurs during the first 10 to 20
seconds after a card is inserted into or removed from the frame. Wait until
the upgrade has finished, and then click Apply settings again.
