[5] from the Interface Card menu to inform the firmware that you

have installed a new interface card. You will be asked to supply the slot

number of the interface card to place On-Line.

that point in the boot-up process.

interface card long before the interface card is ready to communicate with

the RMC.

The table above the Interface Card menu will show the interface card’s

fibre connection status when the interface card is available to be

configured.

set its addressing mode as described in

Hard Addressing

on page 43, or

Soft Addressing

on page 44.
