Connecting the Model 3550 DSU to a DTE The DSU’s rear panel has both a 25-pin EIA-232-D/V.24 connector and a 34-pin ITU-T V.35 connector (used for higher operating speeds). You can use either interface. When the unit is equipped with a TDM/Flex, either of these interfaces can be used as Port 1.
Page 11
Connecting the Model 3550 DSU’s Port 2 For the EIA-232 cable, install as described above. For the V.35 cable, install the V.35 adapter, then the V.35 DTE cable as follows. " Procedure 1. Reconfigure the port for a V.35 interface. See General Configuration Options on page 21.

Installing the Model 3551 DSU The initial installation procedure for the Model 3551 DSU requires the installation of a rear connector plate onto the rear of the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier. After the initial installation, the DSU can be installed or uninstalled by simply removing the DSU from the carrier.
Page 15
5. At the front of the carrier, hold the DSU vertically with the latch on its faceplate in the open position. Then, insert the circuit card into the top and bottom circuit card guides for the slot that contains the rear connector plate. Slide the DSU into the slot, aligning the circuit card with the rear connector plate until the connectors seat firmly into the back of the carrier.
Page 16
7. At the rear of the carrier, connect the appropriate DTE interface cable (EIA-232-D or V.35) to the rear connector plate. For an EIA-232-D interface cable, connect the EIA-232-D cable to the top DTE connector on the rear connector plate. For the 25-pin V.35 interface, a V.35 adapter is shipped with the unit.

Connecting the Model 3551 DSU to the NMS A Model 3551 DSU is set up for network diagnostic connection through the shared diagnostic unit (SDU), which is installed in Slot 0 of the carrier. Refer to the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier Installation Manual , Document No. 3000-A2-GA31, to set up the network diagnostic connection.

To Connect the SDCP to a DSU For the carrier-mounted Model 3551 DSU, the SDCP must first be reconnected to the DSU. Once connected, the SDCP operates like a DCP. " Procedure 1. Press the Select key. A screen similar to the following appears. Carr:Slot: The cursor is usually positioned under the second position of the slot number (1: 0 1 ).
Addressing the Unit A unique address must be assigned to each control and tributary DSU in your network. You can assign an address within the range of 1 through 255. NOTES: — Do not assign the number 192 as a network address. This number is reserved as a broadcast address.
Power-Up Routine When power is applied, the DSU: Determines what options (DBM or TDM/Flex) are installed, if any. Runs a Device Test on itself and each of the installed options. During the tests, all indicators on the DCP light briefly and the message Power-Up Tests appears on the liquid crystal display (LCD).
Configuration Options Configuration options are accessed from the Configuration branch of the front panel menu. In the following tables, factory defaults are shown in boldface. If they differ from each other, defaults are shown for PTPC, PTPT, MPTC, and MPTT. Key to symbols: These configuration options do not appear when Full mode is disabled using Menu from the Configuration branch.
