The external alarm plug should already be connected to the J58890CH-1 Power Distribution Unit. The
pinout for the connector is shown in
Table 24, External alarm connector pinout,
on page 212.
NOTE:
RS232 alarms (RXD, DTR, DSR, TXD, RS-232 GRD, and RTS) are not supported on the
BU3200A Battery Interface Unit.
1
Choose an alarm to connect (such as Battery Interface Failure).
2
Choose the port circuit pack to use and its slot number (from
Table 25, Port circuit pack and
telephone pin designations,
on page 213). For example, TN2183 Analog Line, cabinet 1, slot 1.
3
Choose a port circuit on the port circuit pack, for example port 3.
4
Install cross-connect jumpers to connect the named pins from the alarm wires to the appropriate
pins on the port circuit pack.
NOTE:
Avaya recommends that the RFA, ACF, and BIF alarm leads be connected to the major
alarm device and the BOD alarm leads be connected to the minor alarm device.

Connect the major and minor alarm devices to the appropriate cross-connect pins on the MDF.

Administer the alarms using the Administrator’s Guide for Avaya Communication Manager.
