1 Preparing for installation
The MSM775 zl Premium Controller is a Services zl Module-based WLAN controller that plugs
into switches such as the 5406 zl and 8212 zl. New switches need to be prepared according to
their documentation.
NOTE: The MSM775 zl Controller requires software Version K.15.13 or later on the switch.

Serial number
The serial number is required when contacting HP or a reseller for warranty assistance or for
coverage under a service agreement. Record the serial and product number for future reference.
See the warranty information for coverage details.
The serial number for the controller is located on the bottom of the controller. The serial number of
the controller can also be found in the management tool or through the CLI.

Installation precautions
• Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the controller. When
handling and installing the controller, follow these procedures to avoid damage from static
electricity:
• Handle the controller by its bulkhead or edges and avoid touching the components and
the circuitry on the board.
• When installing the controller, equalize any static charge difference between your body
and the switch by wearing a grounding wrist strap and attaching it to the metal body of
the switch, or by frequently touching the metal body of the switch.
• For safe operation, proper switch cooling, and reduction of electromagnetic emissions, ensure
that a slot cover is installed on any unused controller slot. For safety, be sure that no more
than one slot is uncovered when the switch is powered on.
• The temperature specifications of the controller must be followed.

6 Preparing for installation
2 Installing
WARNING! This is a general procedure. It is the installer’s responsibility to perform the installation
in accordance with local electrical code and regulations.
A maximum of six controllers can be installed in a 5406 zl, 8206 zl, 5412 zl, and 8212 zl chassis.
The above information assumes that no other service modules are installed in the chassis. See
“Environmental specifications” (page 6) for additional restrictions.
NOTE: If you insert a replacement controller into a slot that previously contained a module of a
different type, you must perform a switch reset. A module of a different type is any module other
than the MSM775 zl Controller (J9840A), Advanced Services v2 zl Module with HDD (J9857A),
or Advanced Services v2 zl Module with SSD (J9858A).
Installation procedure
1. Use a Torx T-10 or flat-bladed screwdriver to loosen the screws in the cover plate over the slot
where the controller is to be installed. Remove the cover plate and store it for possible future
use.
2. Hold the controller by its bulkhead, taking care not to touch the connectors or components on
the boards.
3. Open the extractor handles (1 in Figure 5 (page 7)).
4. Align the lower PC board with the card guide in the chassis, insert the controller and slide it
into the slot until it is fully inserted (2 in Figure 5 (page 7)).
nl
Note: the switch has low force, high-performance connectors. Avoid using excessive force
when installing the controller.
5. When the contacts are engaged, use the extractor handles to seat the controller completely.
6. Tighten the screws on the front panel of the controller.

Verifying the controller is installed correctly
When the controller is installed correctly, it undergoes a self-test that takes 30 to 45 seconds. This
happens both when the switch is powered on after installing the controller and when the controller
is installed while the switch already has power. The switch and controller LEDs indicate if the
controller has passed the self-test, as described in the following table.
