Inserting a FIM-7920E module into a chassis

Hardware installation

1. Remove the FIM-7920E module from its packaging. Align the module with the chassis slot
and slide the module part way into the slot.

In the photograph an example module is being installed into chassis slot 1 of a FortiGate-7040E chassis.

2. Unlock the left and right handles by pushing the handle latches up about 2 mm until the
handles pop open.

Fully open both handles before sliding the module into the chassis to avoid damaging the handle mechanism.
Damaging the handles may prevent the module from connecting to power.
