Model 3811Plus Installation The COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier has 17 slots which can hold up to 16 modems and one SDU. The SDU is required when the modems in the carrier are controlled by an NMS, or when multiple carriers in a cabinet configuration are to be controlled by a single SDCP.
Page 8
2. At the front of the carrier, hold the modem vertically, with the latch on its faceplate in the open position, and insert it into the top and bottom card guides of one of the slots numbered 1–16. Slide the modem into the slot, aligning the modem with the rear connector plate, until the backplane connector and DTE connector seat firmly into the back of the carrier.

If the modem fails, or an alarm condition exists, the Alrm LED on the faceplate lights up or flashes. It may be possible to run a diagnostic self-test from the SDCP. See Test Branch in the COMSPHERE 3800Plus Modems User’s Guide. Return to the rear of the carrier and tighten the rear connector plate.

Diagnostic Control Panel The Diagnostic Control Panel (DCP) is the user interface to the modem. It provides a 2-line, 32-character liquid crystal display (LCD), a keypad, speaker grill, and status indicators. A Shared DCP (SDCP) is used to manage carrier-mounted 3811Plus modems. The Select key is used to connect the SDCP to a modem or other device in a specific carrier and slot location.
Checking the SDCP If an SDCP is installed, verify that the SDCP can be used to control the 3811Plus modem. Perform the following steps. Select 1. Press the key on the SDCP. The cursor appears in the 2-digit slot Select selection entry.
