Installing the Model 3550 DSU

Power-Up Routine

When power is applied, the DSU:

Determines what options (DBM or TDM/Flex) are installed, if any.

Runs a Device Test on itself and each of the installed options.

During the tests, all indicators on the DCP light briefly and the message Power-Up Tests appears on the liquid crystal display (LCD).

Displays the results of each test momentarily as Pass, Fail, or Abrt. (Abrt indicates that the Device Test was aborted because a network loopback was in progress during the power-up procedure.) These tests take about 20 seconds to complete.

If a TDM/Flex is installed, MUX is displayed as Pass or Fail.

If the DSU, DBM, or TDM/Flex (MUX) fails this test, follow these steps. Refer to Appendix A as you perform the procedures described in this guide. Refer to Chapters 4 and 5 for additional examples and procedures.

Connecting to the Network

The DSU provides three interfaces (often called a jack).

Follow the appropriate procedure when making your network connections.
