Initial Startup of the IGX

Connecting the Power Supply Monitor

The power supply monitor (PSM) is a connector with outputs that signal an AC power supply alarm. Cisco provides no equipment that connects to the PSM connector, so user-supplied equipment is necessary. Refer to the Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference publication for a description of the PSM outputs.

Initial Startup of the IGX

This section describes checkout procedures to follow after the hardware is in place and ready to receive power. The section “IGX Configuration Summary” page 49 appears later in this chapter. It summarizes the steps and lists the commands for bringing up the system.

Before using the IGX node, be sure the following procedures are complete:

Step 1 If the IGX node uses AC, make sure the node is connected to the correct AC receptacle. For a DC-powered unit, make sure it connects to the correct, dedicated DC source.

Step 2 Check the record for the correct switch status for switch W6 on the SCM. See the recommendation in the section “Preparing the Cards” page 1. If the switch position was not previously verified, check it now. W6 sits above component U7P on the SCM. To indicate to the controller card that the system is an IGX 8430 node, remove the jumper. To indicate that the system is an IGX 8420 node, leave the jumper on the card. For an IGX 8410, Cisco personnel set the switch positions to indicate the node type.

Step 3 The full complement of cards for the node are mounted in the correct slots, correctly seated, and secured with screws.

Step 4 The T1 cables are attached to the correct BC-T1, BC-UVI-2T1EC, or UFI-8T1 card.

Step 5 The E1 cables are attached to the correct BC-E1, BC-UVI-2E1EC, or UFI-8E1 card.

Step 6 The Fractional E1 or T1 connections are attached to the BC-E1 or BC-T1 card connector if the IGX node is providing Fractional E1 or T1 service.

Step 7 The Subrate connections connect to the BC-SR card if the IGX node is providing Subrate E1 or T1 service.

Step 8 E3 cables connect to the correct BC-UAI-1E3 card.

Step 9 T3 cables connect to the correct BC-UAI-1T3 card.

Step 10 The data connections are attached to the appropriate SDI/LDI cards.

Step 11 A control terminal connects to the Control Terminal port on the SCM in back slot 1, or a Cisco WAN Manager workstation connects to the AUI port, and the power cord plugged into the appropriate AC receptacle.

Caution If the FAN 2 connector on the PE-BC is unused, be sure not to plug the control terminal cable into FAN2.

Step 12 If specified, a printer connects to the AUX port on the SCM in back slot 1, and the power cord is plugged into the appropriate AC receptacle.

Step 13 If specified, one or more modems connect to the Control Terminal port or AUX port, as applicable, on the SCM in back slot 1, and any modem power cords plug into the appropriate AC receptacle.
