Safety Guidelines

This section provides safety and electrostatic discharge (ESD) prevention guidelines to help you avoid injury to yourself and avoid damage to equipment. We recommend the following safety guidelines when working with any equipment that connects to electrical power or telephone wiring:

Locate the emergency power off switch for the room in which you are working before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior.

Never work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.

Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

Never perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.

Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

Telephone Wiring Guidelines

Cisco recommends the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Always use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damages equipment and impairs electrical circuitry. ESD occurs when printed circuit cards are improperly handled and results in complete or intermittent failure.

The system server cards and controller cards consist of a printed circuit card that is fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, connectors, and ejector levers are integral components of the carrier. Handle cards by their carrier edges or ejector levers only; never touch the printed circuitry, card components, or connector pins.

Although the metal carrier helps to protect the printed circuitry from ESD, you should wear a preventive antistatic strap whenever handling the server cards or controller cards. Ensure that the strap makes good skin contact, and connect the strap's clip to an unpainted chassis surface to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground.

If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.

Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap when installing or replacing modem cards. Ensure that the ESD strap makes contact with your skin.

Handle all system components by their metal carrier edges and ejector levers only; avoid touching the printed circuitry, card components, or any connector pins.

Place all system components that have been removed on an antistatic surface with the printed circuit card components facing upward or in a static shielding bag. If you are returning a server card to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.


Caution Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be within the range of 1 to 10 megohm.

http://tools.cisco.com/RPF/register/register.do


Note Use the Cisco Product Identification (CPI) tool to locate your product serial number before submitting a web or phone request for service. You can access the CPI tool from the Cisco Technical Support Website by clicking the Tools & Resources link under Documentation & Tools. Choose Cisco Product Identification Tool from the Alphabetical Index drop-down list, or click the Cisco Product Identification Tool link under Alerts & RMAs. The CPI tool offers three search options: by product ID or model name; by tree view; or for certain products, by copying and pasting show command output. Search results show an illustration of your product with the serial number label location highlighted. Locate the serial number label on your product and record the information before placing a service call.


Submitting a Service Request

Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553-2447

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
