1. Install AMU-912 Management Unit in the Shelf slot
labeled "COMMON".
After installing the AMU-912, the front panel LEDs will
cycle upwards in pairs, and then go off. The PWR LED will
remain on. Table 6 provides a description of the AMU-912
LEDs. Some alarms may be active and should be ignored
until provisioning is completed.

will turn on, and then go off. The PWR LED will
remain on.
3. After approximately 10 seconds, the DSX LEDs will
indicate the status of the DSX circuits and the
ACTIVE LED will be on.
4. Install the 2nd PMX-744 Multiplexer Unit in the COT
Shelf slot labeled "MUX 2".
5. After installing the PMX-744, the front panel LEDs
will turn on, and then go off. The PWR LED will

6. After approximately 10 seconds, the DSX LEDs will
indicate the status of the DSX circuits and the
ACTIVE LED will be off.
If the PMX-744 is not indicating the correct status of the DS1
circuits, there may be a problem with the transmission
circuits or with the PMX-744. Problems must be cleared
before proceeding with the turn-up of the COT Shelf.

ROVISIONING
NOTE: It is assumed that the central office side of the
circuit has been provisioned and network facilities are in
place and fully operation. CO side configuration procedures
are provided later in this guide.
Log in to the System
1. Start terminal emulator program on your laptop or
other device. Hyper Terminal or ProComm are two of
many programs you can use.
2. Set baud rate to 9600, 8 data bits, no parity bits, and 1
stop bit (8-N-1).
3. Connect laptop to front panel craft access of the AMU-
912 using a serial DB-9 male to DB-9 female cable.
4. Press the space bar a number of times to start the
autobaud feature.
5. Login page should appear. Type in the password.
Default password is password#1. Press <enter>.
6. You should now be at the main AMU-912 screen.
Confirm by looking at the top banner. It should read
