Removing an e-POI Module from an e-POI Subrack
The ERA Software automatically detects when an e-POI Module is added to an e-POI Subrack. Should you need
to remove an e-POI Module, you must do the following:
1 Disconnect the Ribbon cable from the e-POI Module that you are removing from the e-POI Subrack.
2 Loosen the two thumbscrews on the bottom of the e-POI Module and pull it from the Subrack.
3 Press the Config button on the IFC for 5 seconds. This tells the ERA Software to scan and delete the
removed e-POI Module from inventory and clear any alarms related to that e-POI Module.
4 Wait for the e-POI Module Status LEDS on the IFC to flash off and then on, which indicates that the IFC has
been reconfigured.
e-POI modules are hot swappable; you do not need to power down the e-POI subrack to add or remove
an e-POI module, but you should follow the instructions below to ensure that false alarms are not
generated due to a missing e-POI module.
