Installing the CCM

WARNING: The power outlet should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.

To install the CCM hardware:

1.Locate the CCM where you can connect cables between the serial devices and the CCM serial ports, and where you can connect a LAN interface cable between the Ethernet hub or switch and the CCM LAN connector.

If you are using a rack mount kit, follow the instructions included with the kit.

2.Connect serial devices to the CCM serial ports; see Appendix B for cabling information. Connect each serial device to its appropriate power source, following the device’s documentation.

3.Attach a 10BaseT or 100BaseT LAN interface cable to the LAN connector on the back of the CCM. A CAT 5 cable is required for 100BaseT operation.

4.Insert the power cord into the back of the CCM. Insert the other end of the power cord into a grounded electrical receptacle.

5.Check that the POWER LED on the front of the CCM is illuminated. If not, check the power cable to ensure that it is inserted snugly into the back of the unit. The ONLINE LED will illuminate within one minute to indicate that the unit self-test is complete. If the ONLINE LED blinks, contact Equinox Technical Support for assistance.

6.Check that the LINK LED is illuminated. If not, check the Ethernet cable to ensure that both ends are correctly inserted into their jacks. If the unit is connected to a 100 MB Ethernet hub, the 100MBps LED will be illuminated.

7.Once the POWER, ONLINE and LINK LEDs are illuminated, remove power from the CCM and proceed with the conﬁguration process.

WARNING: The CCM840/1640 and all attached devices should be powered down before servicing the unit. Always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.

Configuring the CCM

To configure the CCM840/1640, you must enter a unique IP address and the network’s subnet mask. This information will be stored in the unit’s configuration database. During initial login, you will specify a password for the Admin user.
