Reseating and Replacing Circuit Packs
Most repair procedures involve replacing faulted circuit packs. In some cases,
problems are resolved by reseating the existing circuit pack. Reseat a circuit pack
only when explicitly instructed to do so by the documented procedures.
Reseating is discouraged since it can put a faulty component back into service
without addressing the cause, resulting in additional and unnecessary dispatches.
After reseating a circuit pack, make sure the problem is really fixed by thoroughly
testing and observing the component in operation.
When a port board is removed from the backplane, no alarm is logged for about
11 minutes to allow for maintenance activity to proceed. After that, a minor
on-board alarm is logged. If the port board is not administered, no alarm is
logged.
