Switch S1: Reserved for Future Use

Switch S1 is reserved for future use and should remain in the Off

position.

Switch S2: Operation Mode

Use Switch S2 to set the IM2RC/F for either Clear Channel or

Octet Timing Mode. Most installations use Clear Channel (64kbps)
Mode operation, though some installations may use Octet Timing
Mode.

When operating in octet timing mode, the IM2RC/F facilitates a

sense of frame synchronization by inserting bi-polar violations in the
AMI conding structure. When the IM2RC/F is set to Octet Timing Mode
(On position), all communications equipment in the channel must be
configured to communicate at 128 kbps (64 kbps data plus 64 kbps
octet framing pattern) Additionally, all terminal equipment must support
octet timing. When set to Clear Channel Mode, the system operates at
64 kbps.

3.0 CONFIGURATION

This section describes how to configure the IM2RC/F rear card.

Please refer to the appropriate function card user manual to configure
the function card.

3.1 CONFIGURING THE IM2RC/F HARDWARE SWITCHES

The Model IM2RC/F rear card features an eight position DIP switch

mounted on the rear of the printed circuit board. Use these switches to
configure G.703 operational and timing modes. Figure 1, below shows
the position of the DIP switches on the board.

Figure 2 shows the orientation of the DIP switches with respect to

the “ON” and “OFF” positions.

SWITCH SUMMARY TABLE

WARNING!

The IM2RC/F card contains sensitive

integrated circuitry. Failure to ground yourself during
configuration may result in damage to the IM2RC/F card or
the front function card.

Notice!

The RJ-45 G.703 port of the Model IM2RC/F is

intended to connect to telecommunication network voltage
(TNV) circuits which may carry dangerous voltages. Therefore
the power and network cables must be disconnected prior to
switch configuration.
