MODULES
The Modules menu provides options that allow you to configure and control the
installed option modules as well as the controller T1/PRI ports. Figure 5-7 shows
the Modules menu. (Write security: 3; Read security: 5)
Figure 5-7. Modules Menu
The controller board (slot 0) has two T1/PRI interface ports. This section only
describes the module options available for the T1/PRI interface ports. Individual
module choices are described in the applicable module manuals.
The ATLAS system controller automatically detects the presence of modules
when they are installed in the system. To view the menus for the installed mod-
ules via the terminal menu, use the arrow keys to scroll to the appropriate menu
and press Enter. You can then access the module choices.

Identifies the slot number. Slot 0 refers to the ATLAS_ 800PLUS base unit. This field
is read-only.

Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Displays the type of module actually installed in the slot or the type of module
you plan to install in the slot. The ATLAS_ 800PLUS automatically detects the type
of module installed in each slot, and the Type field automatically defaults to the
installed module type. You can also use this field to pre-configure a unit before
actually installing modules by specifying the module that you want to install in
each slot.
To use this option, navigate to the field you want to edit and press Enter. For
empty slots, a list of all the available module types displays. Select the one you
want and it displays in the Typ e field. If this field is already configured with a
module, you can only set this field to Empty.
If you install a module in a slot, then want to install a different type of module in
the slot, you must set this field to Empty before selecting another module type.
