When a 6800+ETH module is installed in a FR6822+ frame, the frame becomes a FR6822+QXFE frame. This frame provides monitoring thumbnails and enhanced alarm monitoring options for compatible modules. To determine whether the modules installed in your frame have these capabilities, see the manuals applicable to those products.An interface to Ethernet via the 6800+ETH allows connectivity with all other Command and ™...

FR6822+ Frames Installation and Operation Manual Chaining If you have older FR6802+QXF, FR6802+XF, and/or FR6802+DM frames that contain low-end resource modules, you can chain them to an FR6822+QXFE frame to create a Legacy communication network. Frames By chaining three of these older frames to the FR6822+QXFE frame and connecting them to the Ethernet network, you can monitor and control all four frames and their installed devices.
Switch 1 Connect one end of a straight-through RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port on the back right of the FR6822+QXFE frame, and connect the other end to a PC or Ethernet hub or switch.

FR6822+ Frames Installation and Operation Manual Some modules have a great number of parameters and alarms. If you have control and monitoring software available and the required hardware (FR6822+QXFE frame), it is strongly recommended that you use it. Using Many modules contain controls that include two control switches and a series of LED indicators on the module’s card edge.

6800+ETHSNMP resource modules. Using CCS Software with FR6822+QXFE CCS configuration and control of FR6822+QXFE frames begins with the discovery process. When you enter the IP address of the 6800+ETH module and run a discovery, all modules in theFR6822+QXFE host frame are also discovered.
Ethernet hub/switch) Discovering Frames and Modules Using a CCS Application If your FR6822+QXFE and its associated modules do not appear in the Navigation pane of CCS Navigator, you will need to discover it. You may also run discoveries periodically when you switch, add, or remove modules in the frame.
CCS software online Help also has extensive information on discovering devices. Monitoring 6800+ Modules in CCS Navigator Once you have discovered your FR6822+QXFE frame in CCS Navigator and saved the results of the discovery, the frame and modules will appear in the Navigation pane.

Chapter 4 FR6822+QXFE Configuration, Monitoring, and Control Creating a Preset You cannot create presets for multiple modules at the same time, or for the entire contents of a frame. To create a preset using the 6800+ HTTP control interface, follow these steps: Browse to the module for which you want to create a preset.
Upgrading Module Firmware Using an HTTP Browser You can use the 6800+ HTTP control interface to upgrade the firmware on any module in the FR6822+QXFE frame, including the 6800+ETH module. Follow these steps: Download the most recent appropriate upgrade package from our website or from your product CD-ROM.

Configuring SNMP Settings in CCS Software You can use CCS Navigator, in Build mode, to configure SNMP. Follow these steps: If the FR6822+QXFE frame and its modules have not been discovered, perform the Discovery operation, and then save the results of the discovery.
Chapter 4 FR6822+QXFE Configuration, Monitoring, and Control Figure 4-32 Add Trap Destination Dialog Box Choose the SNMP version that the receiving device uses. Enter the IP address of that trap destination. Choose the port number. The default is 162. You may need to change this depending on how your network servers are configured.
Chapter 4 FR6822+QXFE Configuration, Monitoring, and Control To receive traps, start up the trap receiver in your MIB browser software. To verify that your configurations are correct, you can walk MIB2. To facilitate monitoring more than one of the same device (for example, multiple VSD6800+ Distribution Amplifiers), MIBs index devices by slot, with the 6800+ETH module being in frame 0.
If your 6800+ETH module includes the SNMP option, you can also access these parameters using a third-party SNMP-based control application. See Control and Monitoring FR6822+QXFE Using SNMP on page 60 for more information. All parameters clip unless otherwise indicated.
