Installing the INA Module 3
This chapter describes the steps needed to physically install and power up the INA
MERLIN MAGIX system. The following topics are discussed.
• “Install the INA Module in a Carrier” on page 3-1
• “Connect Cables” on page 3-1
• “Observe LED Behavior” on page 3-4
Install the INA Module in a Carrier
Install the module in the MERLIN MAGIX carrier according to the directions found in
Chapter 2 of the MERLIN MAGIX Integrated System, Installation, SPM, and Maintenance and
Troubleshooting Supplement (555-661-140).
Turn on the MERLIN MAGIX system. Ensure that the system LED on the module’s front
panel blinks off once every 5 seconds. (See “System LED” on page 3-5.) This behavior
indicates that the module is properly operating and that ComOS has fully booted up. It
may take up to 2 minutes for the INA module to reach this state after the power is
turned on.
Connect Cables
The necessary cables must be connected to the INA module before you can proceed with
the rest of the installation and configuration.
Connect a Serial Passthrough Cable
Connect the supplied straight-through RJ-45 cable between the C1 port (Figure 3-1) on
the INA module and the administration port (labeled ADMIN) on the MERLIN MAGIX
processor module. This cable allows the user to connect to the INA command line
interface by dialing in to the internal modem in the MERLIN MAGIX processor module.
