Power On Procedure

3.3 Operating Instructions

ASM-20 operates entirely unattended, except when the occasional monitoring of LED indicators is required.

Apply AC power by connecting the AC power cord to an acceptable AC source. The PWR LED should light up, indicating that the ASM-20 is on. If the local and remote ASM-20 units are in operation and passing data, the following indicator conditions will exist:

PWR: On

RTS:

On or Flashing

TD:

Flashing or Off

RD:

Flashing or Off

DCD: On or Flashing

TEST: Off.

If you do not obtain the above LED indications following initial power on, check that the three test push buttons are not depressed.
