CANOGA PERKINS 9155 Network Interface Device - Manual (Page 11)

Chapter 2
Set-up and Installation
This section describes how to set up and install the 9155 and the interface modules.
Before setting up the 9155, make sure the serial cable (required to connect the chassis to a VT100
type terminal or PC) is available.
2.1 Install the 9155
The 9155 is tested and inspected before shipment from the factory. If there is obvious damage to the
shipping container, contact the carrier immediately.
Caution: Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety precautions when handling Canoga
Perkins products, as with all electronic devices with static sensitive components.
1. Unpack the 9155. Keep the shipping container until the unit is installed and fully operational. In
the unlikely event that the unit is defective, contact Canoga Perkins Customer Service for a return
authorization number (RMA) and instructions on return shipment. For details, see Appendix A.
2. Mount the 9155 in a rack or as a standalone unit.
• Use the standard rackmount kit with brackets and screws to install the 9155 in a 19-inch rack or
use the optional 23-inch rackmount kit. The 9155 includes two sets of mounting holes.
• For a front chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw holes at the
front of the side panel of the 9155, then secure the screws.
• For a mid- or recessed chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw
holes in the middle of the side panel of the 9155, then secure the screws.
• To use the 9155 as a standalone unit, place it on a secure, flat surface within reach of the power
and fiber optic connections
3. Connect the power. The 9155 can be equipped for either AC or DC power.
• Plug the AC power cord into the socket at the rear of the 9155 and the wall socket.
Caution: Reversing the connections can damage both the DC source and the 9155.
• Connect power for the -48 VDC power supply.
• For a -48V DC source, connect the grounding strap between the Chassis Ground and the
+VDC terminals.
• For a +48 VDC source, connect the grounding strap between the Chassis Ground and the
-VDC terminals.
4. Install the interface modules in the User and Extension slots:
a. Insert a module into a slot and push firmly on the center of the front panel. If it does not seat
properly, pull the module out, inspect for bent connector pins, and reinsert it.
b. When the module is firmly seated, hand-tighten the screws on the front panel.
