Customizing DSX-1-Compatible Units

Making Changes in Switchpack Mode

When operating in Switchpack Mode, you can change configuration options by moving switches on the board hardware.

To enable Switchpack Mode, refer to Switching Between Terminal and

Switchpack Modes in Chapter 3, Using Terminal and Switchpack Modes.

"Procedure

Use electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection when handling the circuit board. To open the unit and make changes while in Switchpack Mode:

1.Power down the unit and expose the circuit board by loosening the two screws on the back panel of the unit and sliding off the cover.

2.Refer to the board layout illustration in Appendix C, Switchpacks and Jumpers, to locate switchpack S1.

3.Place the switchpack in the correct position for each desired configuration option. Definitions of switchpack positions are provided in Appendix C, Switchpacks and Jumpers.

For example, to change a unit's card type from CO to CP, move switch 1 on switchpack S1 to the OFF position.

4.Replace the cover and screws.

5.Power up the board to reset and enable the new configuration.
