3.2 CONNECTING THE FOT-F3 TO THE NETWORK

After you are sure that you have met all the requirements listed in Chapter 2, Installation Requirements/ Specifications, complete the installation instructions listed in this section.

NOTE: Ensure that the site where the FOT-F3 will be located will allow the AUI cable and the fiber optic link segment to be easily connected to the transceiver before you begin the installation procedures.

3.2.1 Setting the SQE Switch

The Signal Quality Error (SQE) Test Switch allows you to enable or disable the SQE (“heartbeat”) test function. The SQE switch is the two position switch on the right side of the FOT-F3, located above the fiber optic ports. See Figure 3-1. The SQE test function is disabled when the transceiver is shipped.
