8 Insert the card into the appropriate slot in a slot card
cage (see Fig.
22). This may be in the main panel
housing, or in an expansion housing. See
section
“Obtain Slot Card Addresses”. Push the
card firmly until it clicks into place.
9 Connect the loop cable bare core wires into the loop
connector plug screw terminals. Check for correct
polarity.
The loop connector labels will not correspond with
the loop labels in the configuration – you will need to
map them across. For example with one PLX800 in
the system, the card ‘Loop A’ connector will corre-
spond to ‘Loop E’ of the configuration (Loop A to
Loop D being the standard loops on the PLX800
main board).
10 Insert the loop connector plugs into the card.
11 Once the panel is powered up, check the optical indi-
cators to ensure correct operation – no indicators
should be active apart from the ‘Status’ indicator,
which should be switching active to inactive every
0.5 seconds.
