3.2Operating Instructions

Turning IPmux-1/1E On

Without Control Terminal

The IPmux-1/1E power switch is located on the back panel, as shown in

Figure 3-2.

To power up IPmux-1/1E without a Control terminal:

1.Turn the power supply switch, located on the rear panel, to ON.

2.Check the unit LED indicators, located on the left side of the front panel, and the module indicators for proper operation (see Figure 3-1, Figure 3-2, Figure 3-3, Figure 3-4, Table 3-1,and Table 3-2).

With Control Terminal

To power up IPmux-1/1E with a Control terminal:

1.Make sure all IPmux-1/1E cables and connectors are properly connected.

2.Connect IPmux-1/1E to a PC equipped with an ASCII terminal-emulation application (for example, Windows 95 Hyper Terminal or Procomm).

3.Turn on the control-terminal PC and set its default port parameters to

19,200 baud, 8 bits/character, 1 stop bit, No Parity. Set the terminal emulator to ANSI VT100 emulation (for optimal view of system menus).

4.Switch ON the POWER supply switch, located on the rear panel.

5.When the initialization and self-test are over, a menu appears displaying initialization and self-test results. If the self-test is successful, the RDY LED (Figure 3-1and Figure 3-3) on the left side of the front panel lights. If problems are encountered, refer to Chapter 4 for instructions.
