Chapter 3 - Unpacking & Setup

3.1Introduction

This chapter describes the unpacking of the DSU, cable connections depending on whether EIA-232-D or ITU-T V.35 interface signaling is used on the data port, and how to configure the unit dependent on your site situation. Once the DSU is configured, then the data port can be connected to your data device.

3.2Unpacking

The shipping box contains the DSU, power adapter, and a documentation CD with a User's Guide. Inspect the contents for signs of any shipping damage. If damage is observed, do not power up the unit, contact Multi-Tech's Technical Support for advice (refer to Chapter 5 - Warranty). If no damage is observed, place the DSU in its final location and verify the signal levels (EIA-232-D or ITU-T V.35) for the data port, and connect your cables, phone lines, and power supply.
