Installation Overview ® Installation of a Dialogic SS7G21 or SS7G22 product involves the following tasks performed in the order shown. References to more detailed task descriptions are provided where appropriate. To install an SS7G21 or SS7G22 unit, proceed as follows: 1.
Chapter 9 Product Installation and Hot-Swap Actions — Configure the product. 10. When installation is complete and the system is operating as intended, consider if you will want to install a replacement Hard Disk Drive (HDD) in the future. If you do, now is an ideal time to perform a backup of the System Configuration, which is a necessary step before the HDD can be replaced.
® Dialogic SS7G21 and SS7G22 Signaling Servers Hardware Manual Issue 7 • Replacement of Power Supply Module in AC Products The general actions required, such as (un)latching, removal and insertion of modules, are described in Section 9.2.6. The connections are unaffected by AC Module replacement.
Chapter 9 Product Installation and Hot-Swap Actions Figure 13. DC Power Supply Module Terminal Block DC Power Supply Module Terminal Block Connections The product is supplied with an insulating cover over the terminal block. To gain access to the terminals, apply gentle pressure to flip up the cover, while using a small flat blade screwdriver to unlatch each side in turn.
® Dialogic SS7G21 and SS7G22 Signaling Servers Hardware Manual Issue 7 Figure 15. DC Power Terminal Lug When selecting an appropriately sized power wire, consider the power rating of the product, and the length of the cable run. When installing the product in locations other than telecommunications centres, ensure that the cables connecting the DC power input, and the safety ground conductor, are less than 3 metres in length.
Chapter 9 Product Installation and Hot-Swap Actions Note: For DC powered products, the power source should be disconnected from any module while it is being removed or installed. When hot-swap functionality is required, ensure that one module remains installed, connected, and powered at all times. CAUTION 1 Both module positions should have either a Power Supply Module or a filler module installed whenever the product is operational.
Figure 17. Unlocking and Removing an AC Power Supply Module Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Replacement The SS7G20SHDD Spare Hard Disk Drive for Dialogic® SS7G21 and SS7G22 Signaling Servers, consists of a spare hard disk drive, which contains the operating software for use with a SS7G2x Signaling Server. It allows the recovery of systems that have suffered HDD failure, but is subject to the pre-condition that the system operator must have prepared a System Configuration backup in advance of the HDD failure.
Chapter 9 Product Installation and Hot-Swap Actions An SS7G20SHDD may be used in any SS7G2x Signaling Server, however, it requires a valid System License for that system. The process for making a backup of the System License and additional configuration files is described below.
