Installing the Modem
After you set the modem’s configuration switches, you can now install it in a slot
within an RM16M Rack or an RMX shelf from Raymar-Telenetics.
The modem is installed or replaced from the front of the modem cage or modem
rack, without disturbing the cable connections on the back. The modem can be
installed and removed without having to remove power from the modem cage or
modem rack. Special tools or test equipment are not required for installing the
modem.
1.
Wear an antistatic wrist strap over your wrist on your bare skin (not over a
shirt or jacket).
2.
Remove the wrapping that is protecting the modem.
3.
Open the front panel door of the RM16M modem rack and pick an empty
slot.
4.
Hold the modem so the front panel LEDs are facing you and the edge
connectors are pointing to the backplane of the modem rack.
5.
Install the modem into the selected slot in the modem rack (see Figure 2-
3).
6.
Push firmly on the modem to seat it properly into the slot and backplane.
The back of the modem rack contains the connectors for interfacing to the
Data Terminal Equipment and communications line. Figure 2-4 shows
how the modems look when installed in the rack.
7.
Replace the front panel of the modem cage or modem rack.
