Hardware Installation
MSM765zl Overview
The HP ProCurve Networking MSM765zl Mobility Controller is a Services zl
Module-based WLAN controller. It plugs in to either the 5400zl or 8212zl
switches. The MSM765zl Mobility Controller is referred to in this document
as the MSM765zl. New switches need to be prepared according to their
supplied documentation.
A maximum of four MSM765zls can be installed in the same chassis. Under
certain conditions, a maximum of three MSM765zls are supported in the 5406zl
chassis. See “Environmental Specifications” on page 1-5.
Figure 1. Front panel of the MSM765zl
See also “Front Panel Port and LEDs” on page C-1.
Note This manual contains the basic information needed to get you started using
the MSM765zl. It also contains EMC Regulatory Statements (Appendix A) and
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Statements (Appendix
B). Appendix C provides hardware component information.
For more information on working with the MSM765zl, see the MSM7xx
Controllers Management and Configuration Guide. The latest version of this
and all HP ProCurve Networking documentation is available at:

Hardware Installation
Installing the MSM765zl
Installing the MSM765zl
To install the MSM765zl into a switch, the switch can be powered on or off.
The following procedure assumes the switch is powered on.
Installation Procedure
1. Use a Torx T-10 or flat-bladed screwdriver to unscrew the screws in the
cover plate over the slot where the MSM765zl is to be installed. Remove
the cover, and store the cover plate for possible future use.
2. Hold the MSM765zl by its bulkhead—taking care not to touch the metal
connectors or components on the board.
3. Open the extractor handles.
Installation Precautions
■Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the
MSM765zl. When handling and installing the MSM765zl, follow these
procedures to avoid damage from static electricity:
• Handle the MSM765zl by its bulkhead or edges and avoid touching
the components and the circuitry on the board.
• When installing the MSM765zl, equalize any static charge difference
between your body and the switch by wearing a grounding wrist
strap and attaching it to the switch’s metal body, or by frequently
touching the switch’s metal body.
■The MSM765zl has “low-force”, high-performance connectors. High
insertion forces are not necessary to install the MSM765zl, and should
not be used.
■Ensure the MSM765zl is fully inserted. Press the MSM765zl into the
slot until the bulkhead on the MSM765zl contacts or is very close to
contacting the front face of the switch chassis.
■Once the MSM765zl is fully inserted, screw in the two retaining screws
to secure the MSM765zl in place.
■For safe operation, proper switch cooling, and reduction of electromag-
netic emissions, ensure that a slot cover is installed on any unused
MSM765zl slot. For safety, no more than one slot should be uncovered
at a time when the switch is powered on.
■Respect the temperature specifications for the MSM765zl.

4. Insert the MSM765zl aligning with the guides in the slot, and slide it into
the slot until it is fully inserted.
5. Once the contacts have engaged, use the extractor handles to seat the
MSM765zl completely.
6. Tighten the screws.

Hardware Installation
Installing the MSM765zl
Verifying the MSM765zl is Installed Correctly
When the MSM765zl is installed properly, it undergoes a self test that takes a
few seconds. This happens both when the switch is powered on after installing
the MSM765zl, and when the MSM765zl is installed while the switch already
has power. The LEDs help determine if the MSM765zl has passed the self test,
as described in the following table.
Error Conditions
Error conditions indicated by the MSM765zl LEDs are described in “Front
Panel Port and LEDs” on page C-1.
Note Allow sufficient time for the MSM765zl to start up, or you will receive an error
message.

Test Switch ON briefly while the MSM765zl is undergoing self test, then OFF.
Note:Ifthe MSM765zl wasinstalledwith the switch powered off,
and then the switch was powered on, the Test LED will stay ON
for the duration of the switch self test.
Figure 6 on page C-4 and Figure 7 on page C-4 show the location
of the Test, Fault, and MSM765zl StatusLEDs on a 5400zl or 8212zl
series switch, respectively.
Fault Switch OFF
Module
Status Switch The LED goes ON as soon as the MSM765zl is installed and the switch is powered on, and stays ON steadily.
Module
Status MSM765zl The LED blinks green during initialization. Solid green means that MSM765zl is operational.
Figure 1 on page 1-1 shows the location of all MSM765zl LEDs.
HDDandCF
Status MSM765zl The LED goes ON when HDD/CF initialization was successful. It is OFF by default.
