Quick Start Procedure - Paradyne 3164 Quick Reference

Quick Start Procedure

Before installing the DSU/CSU, read the Important Safety Instructions beginning on
page 24.
The following procedure is for experienced DSU/CSU users who are familiar with the
3164 DSU/CSU installation process and have no special requirements for their
application. See the ACCULINK DSU/CSU Operator's Guide for more information.
1. Attach the power cord to the rear of the DSU/CSU and the other end to a grounded
115 Vac power outlet.
2. Attach the DSU/CSU network connection to the T1 network using the appropriate
cable. Attach the DSU/CSU to the customer premises equipment via the DTE
(DSX-1) and/or port connectors.
3. Power on the DSU/CSU to perform the power-on self-test.
4. If you intend to use front panel emulation, connect the cable from the PC to the
COM port on the rear panel of the DSU/CSU.
5. If you intend to manage the DSU/CSU with SNMP, cable either the COM or
MODEM port (as appropriate for your configuration). Then, configure the SNMP
management link.
6. If you do not intend to use the DTE Drop/Insert T1 port, disable it. See
Configuration Procedures on page 4. The default setting for this port is Enabled.
7. The Factory 1 configuration for ESF framing format and B8ZS line coding format is
the default configuration and is appropriate for most networks. If this configuration
does not work for you, try the Factory 2 configuration for D4 framing format and
AMI line coding format. To further customize configuration options, refer to
Changing Configuration Options in Chapter 4, Configuration , and to Appendix C,
Configuration Options , in the Operator's Guide .
8. During the power-on self-test, the FAIL LED flashes, then all LEDs blink twice.
When the test is complete, verify that the DSU/CSU is functional by observing that
the OK, NETWORK SIG, and DTE SIG LEDs are lit.
9. Configure the ports and channels you intend to use and assign channels to the
network interface.
