3.2 Operating ASM-60 Turning On ASM-60
ASM-60 is turned on as soon as the power is connected to the unit. The PWR
indicator lights up and remains lit as long as ASM-60 receives power.
Normal Operation
Always operate ASM-60 in pairs: ASM-60/CO opposite ASM-60/CPE.
ASM-60 requires no operator attention once installed, with the exception of
occasional monitoring of front panel indicators. Intervention is only required when
ASM-60 must be adapted to new operational requirements.
