Chapter 1 OCTAL BRI/U MODULE OVERVIEW The Octal BRI/U Module is a member of the ATLAS family of integrated ac- cess products, providing eight Basic Rate ISDN (BRI) U interfaces, each ca- pable of operating in either NT or LT mode. Any port can deliver timing for the system.
Chapter 1. Introduction FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The Octal BRI/U Module installs in any available option slot in the ATLAS chassis. You can view the status of the module itself, as well as the circuits to which it interfaces, from the ATLAS front panel. Additional status infor-...
The Octal BRI/U Module (see Figure 1-2) plugs into any available option slot in the rear of the ATLAS chassis. Figure 1-2. Octal BRI/U Option Module The label over each RJ-45 connector refers to the port on the Octal BRI/U Module. 61200186L2-1...
Carefully unpack and inspect the Octal BRI/U Module for shipping damag- es. If you suspect damage occurred during shipping, file a claim immediate- ly with the carrier and then contact ADTRAN Technical Support (see the last page of this manual for pertinent information). If possible, keep the original shipping container for returning the Octal BRI/U Module for repair or for verification of shipping damage.
Remove the cover plate from the appropriate option slot in the ATLAS rear panel. Slide the Octal BRI/U Module into the option slot until the module is firmly positioned against the front of the chassis. Secure the thumbscrews at both edges of the module.
Octal BRI/U Module is automatically restored upon power-up. Failed Self-Test If the Octal BRI/U Module fails self-test, a message will be displayed on the LCD (800 system only) and the terminal menu self-test log. See the ATLAS User Manual for details.
Operation Chapter 3 OVERVIEW You can control and configure the Octal BRI/U Module from a variety of sources, including the following: • The ATLAS front panel, providing minimal configuration and status support (ATLAS 800 systems only) • The terminal menus, allowing detailed configuration, status, and diag- nostics •...
ODULES The ATLAS system controller automatically detects the presence of the Octal BRI/U Module when it is installed in the system. To see the menus for the Octal BRI/U Module via the terminal menu, use the arrow keys to scroll to the Modules menu and press E to access the module choices.
Displays the type of module actually installed in the slot or the type of module you plan to install in the slot. If an Octal BRI/U Module is installed, the Type field automatically defaults to U-BRI (the Octal BRI/U Module).
FFLINE not responding to polls. ESPONSE This read-only field displays the hardware revision of the Octal BRI/U Module. ODULES Figure 3-3 shows the menu options available for the Octal BRI/U Module (see also the menu tree in Figure 3-2 on page 3-2). The following sections de- scribe these options.
Displays alarm conditions including the port number (P ) and the alarm LARM type (A LARMS Displays the channel status (C ) of each of the eight Octal BRI/U Module HANNEL ports (P ). The following symbols may display: TATUS –...
Chapter 3. Operation ACTORY You can restore the factory default settings for an Octal BRI/U Module by pressing either while the cursor is over the S number (this action restores ESTORE the factory settings for all of the module options) or while the cursor is over an individual field (this action restores factory settings only for the particu- lar field).
