Changing Modem Cards

When the rack is powered up, the control card reads each modem card's settings in the rack and stores the modem settings, It also stores all setting changes afterward. After changing a card the rack automatically recalls the previous settings and configures the new card accordingly.

Changing Modem cards is easy with the RS-1612 system. You do not need to power down or disable anything in the network. The entire process should take less than a minute.

1.Unscrew and remove the old modem card.

2.Watch the Modem Display and make sure the slot status for the removed modem changes to reflect that it is now empty.

3.Slide a new modem into the slot and screw it in place. The TST LED flashes indicating the initial download process is taking place.

4.If necessary, configure the modem according to your needs.
