MODULES

The Modules menu provides options that allow you to configure and control the
installed option modules as well as the controller T1/PRI ports. Figure 5-7 shows
the Modules menu. (Write security: 3; Read security: 5)

Figure 5-7. Modules Menu

The controller board (slot 0) has two T1/PRI interface ports. This section only
describes the module options available for the T1/PRI interface ports. Individual
module choices are described in the applicable module manuals.

The ATLAS system controller automatically detects the presence of modules
when they are installed in the system. To view the menus for the installed mod-
ules via the terminal menu, use the

arrow keys

to scroll to the appropriate menu

and press

Enter.

You can then access the module choices.

automatically detects the type

of module installed in each slot, and the

field automatically defaults to the

installed module type. You can also use this field to pre-configure a unit before
actually installing modules by specifying the module that you want to install in
each slot.

To use this option, navigate to the field you want to edit and press

Enter

. For

empty slots, a list of all the available module types displays. Select the one you
want and it displays in the

Type

field. If this field is already configured with a

module, you can only set this field to

Empty

.

If you install a module in a slot, then want to install a different type of module in
the slot, you must set this field to Empty before selecting another module type.
