!HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR STATIC-SENSITIVE DEVICES

This product is designed to protect sensitive components from

damage due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during normal

operation. When performing installation procedures,

however, take proper static control precautions to

prevent damage to equipment. If you are not sure

of the proper static control precautions, contact

your nearest sales or service representative.

I/O Card

Installing the I/O Card

The NAM’s I/O card provides the network, DSX, DBM,

modem, DTE and COM port connections. The I/O card

inserts directly behind the NAM that it supports in the

access carrier.

1. Remove the I/O card from the shipping box.

To avoid damaging the card, handle by the top and

bottom edges only.

2. At the rear of the carrier, align the I/O card with the

upper and lower tracks of the slot.

Push gently toward the midplane until it stops and

the card cannot be pushed any further.

Installing the NAM into a Multislot Housing

The illustration shows the 14-slot access carrier as the housing.

CAUTION:

Be sure that you install the NAM in the correct slot so that it mates with its

matching I/O card. Otherwise, you could damage your card.

1. Remove the NAM from the shipping

box. Handle only by the top and

bottom edges to avoid damaging

the card.

2. At the front of the carrier, align the

NAM with the upper and lower

tracks of the appropriate slot.

3. Slide the NAM into the tracks until it

seats with the midplane connectors.

Use care not to force the card or

bend any pins.

4. Close the carrier’s upper and lower

ejector latches to lock the card into

place, then tighten the captive

screws on the ejector latches.

Verification Check:

Did the OK LED light?

– If yes, the FrameSaver unit has power.

– If no, refer to

Troubleshooting

in the User’s Guide.

Connecting the COM Port to an Asynchronous Terminal

The FrameSaver unit must first be directly connected to a VT100-compatible

asynchronous terminal or a PC providing VT100 terminal emulation to set up access

and management of the unit.

1. Configure the VT100-compatible async terminal or PC to be compatible with the

FrameSaver unit:

– COM Port in use by your PC: COM1 or COM2

– COM Port Baud Rate is set to 19.2 kbps

– Character length is set to 8 data bits

– Parity is set to none

– Stop bit is set to 1

– Flow Control is set to None

2. Insert the 8-pin end of the cable into the COM port for the appropriate slot.

3. Insert the other end of the cable into the VT100-compatible asynchronous terminal,

PC, or async terminal providing VT100 terminal emulation to set up the unit.
