LED will be turned off. If the module FRU information is invalid or the carrier cannot provide
the necessary payload power, the insertion process is stopped and the BLUE HS LED keeps
blinking. Should this problem occur, please contact Kontron’s Technical Support.

4 Short blinks of the Module Management LEDs and the User-Specific LEDs.

The carrier enables the payload power for the AM4204, and the Module Management LEDs and the
User-Specific LEDs emit a short blink.

5 Ensure that the board and all required interfacing cables are properly secured.

4 The AM4204 is now ready for operation. For operation of the AM4204, refer to appropriate AM4204-

specific software, application, and system documentation.

Hot Swap Extraction Procedures

To extract the board proceed as follows:

1 Ensure that the safety requirements indicated in section 3.1 are observed. Particular attention must be

paid to the warning regarding the heat sink!

2 Pull the handle on the AM4204’s front panel initiating the deactivation. This changes the state of the

handle to open. Now, the following steps occur:

1 Short blinks of the BLUE HS LED

• When the carrier IPMI controller receives the handle opened event, the carrier sends a

command to the MMC with a request to perform short blinks of the BLUE HS LED. This indicates
to the operator that the AM4204 is waiting to be deactivated.

• Now the AM4204 waits for a permission from higher level management (Shelf Manager or

System Manager) to proceed with its deactivation.

• Once the AM4204 receives the permission to continue the deactivation, all used ports are

disabled.

• The Intelligent Platform Management Controller on the Carrier disables the AM4204's Payload

Power.

2 The BLUE HS LED turns on

Now the AM4204 is ready to be safely extracted.

3 Disconnect any interfacing cables that may be connected to the AM4204.

4 Pull the AM4204 out of the slot. Now the carrier disables the management power for the AM4204.

WARNING

Due care should be exercised when handling the board due to the fact that the heat
sink can get very hot. Do not touch the heat sink when changing the board.
