Installation
6. Carefully push the central control module into slot 0 (see also the illustration
OpenCom 510: 1-12 frame slots on page 26). The printing on the front of the
module should be at the top.
Ensure that the backplane plug of the central control module is securely
plugged into the socket on the backplane.
7. Refit the screws to secure the module in the 1-12 frame.
8. Plug the desired cables into the corresponding RJ45 sockets on the central
control module. Refer to Modules starting on page 61 for information on pin
assignment.
9. Switch the OpenCom 510 on again. To do so, reconnect the group 1 power
supply unit (see A in the illustration OpenCom 510: 1-12 frame slots on page 26)
with the mains supply (if you are powering the OpenCom 510 with two power
supply units, reconnect the second unit as well).
The system will now start up and all modules (interface cards) will be re-initia-
lised.
10.Observe the module LEDs during start-up of the OpenCom 510. Information
on indicators can be found in Modules starting on page 61.
Explanatory Note on Shutting Down the System
If the OpenCom 510 is disconnected from the mains supply, its main memory is
deleted. The main memory stores the current configuration data, which are regu-
larly copied to the CompactFlash memory card. Restarting the system causes it to
copy the current configuration data from the main memory to the CompactFlash
card, which ensures that the most recent configuration is restored when the
system is started up.

Note: The MAC address for the OpenCom 510 is assigned by
the central control module and cannot be changed. If the
central control module has to be exchanged, you may need
to change the IP settings. For further information on MAC
addresses, refer to the online help.
