Removing the VLS Node Access Panel

WARNING!

Pressing the Power on/Standby button sets the node to the standby position, which

removes power from most areas of the node. However, portions of the power supply and some
internal circuitry remain active until the AC power cord is removed.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system

components to cool before touching them.

CAUTION:

Do not operate the node for long periods without the access panel. Operating the

node without the access panel results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to
thermal damage.

CAUTION:

Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Properly ground yourself

before beginning any installation procedure.

1.

Power off the node. See

Powering Off the System

.
