Installing Interface Modules

Depending on your specific application, install Cableton Systems WAN Port Interface Modules (WPIMs) and the CSX-COMP/ENCR into the HSIM-W6 before proceeding with the installation of your HSIM-W6. Refer to the Installing WAN Port Interface Modules (WPIMs) and CSX-COMP/ENCR Installation sections within this chapter for installation instructions.

!

CAUTION

The WPIMs and CSX-COMP/ENCR for the HSIM-W6 are sensitive to static discharges. Use a grounding strap and observe all static precautions during installation. Failure to do so could result in damage to the WPIMs, CSXCOMP/ENCR, and the HSIM-W6.

NOTE

The HSIM-W6 must have at least one EPIM and one WPIM installed before you can begin configuring the device.

Installing WAN Port Interface Modules (WPIMs)

NOTE

Both WAN ports can be populated. However, if only a single WPIM is used to communicate and configure your HSIM-W6, WIDE AREA 1 port must have a WPIM installed.

To install a WPIM into the HSIM-W6, refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 and complete the following steps:

1.Attach the antistatic wrist strap to your wrist (refer to the instructions on the antistatic wrist strap package).

2.Remove and save the three screws from the WPIM standoffs (see Figure 2). Remove the WPIM coverplate.
