Shelf Manager

Location

The shelf manager location is dependant on the switch position in the shelf. Unless the shelf manager is placed in the correct slot communication is not possible with the switch using the shelf manager. If the switch is in position 7 then the shelf manager should be in position 1 and if the switch is in position 8 then the shelf manager should be in position 2.
