Installing the 201i server in a large Meridian 1 system

Standard 1.07

CallPilot

The secondary backplane (DS30X) connector on the 201i server connects 
the server to the second slot on the shelf, thereby providing access to the 
voice channels provided by that slot.

There is an approximate difference of 2 mm (0.08 in) between slots on a 
Meridian 1 tiered system and an Option 11C or Option 11C Mini system. As 
a result, you must install the secondary backplane (DS30X) connector on the 
201i server in the correct position before a successful connection with the 
switch backplane can be established. 

The 201i server ships ready for installation into an Option 
11C or Option 11C Mini switch. Before you install the 
201i server in a larger Meridian 1 switch (for example, 
Option 51C), you must move the secondary backplane 
(DS30X) connector to the correct position.

A yellow warning label over the top lock latch on the 
201i server prevents you from securing the 201i server 
in a slot. This label serves as a reminder to move the 
secondary backplane connector to the Meridian 1 
position, if required, before installing the 201i server 
into the slot.
