  • Page 4: About The Imcv-Modules

    IMC Networks web site at: http://www.imcnetworks.com/tech/techsup.asp Installation iMcV-Modules install in any IMC Networks SNMP-manageable iMediaChassis series or in any MediaChassis. To install an iMcV-Module, remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be installed by removing the screw on the outside edge of the bracket.
  • Page 5: Led Operation

    LED Operation Each iMcV-Module features diagnostic LEDs that provide information on features and ports. LEDs on iMcV-PIM (-10) The LED functions are as follows: Glows green when unit has power. LNK (RJ-45) Glows green if link is established on the twisted pair port (located on RJ-45).
  • Page 6 LEDs on iMcV-LIM The LED functions are as follows: Glows green when FX LinkLoss is enabled. Glows green when a link is established on the port. Blinks green when port is transmitting data. Blinks yellow when port is receiving data. Glows green when FiberAlert is enabled.
  • Page 7: Configuration Instructions

    Configuration Instructions Many iMcV-Modules have user-configurable features (e.g., FiberAlert, LinkLoss, Auto Negotiation, etc.). Refer to the chart for information on available features on each module. Instructions for configuring both managed (via an SNMP-compatible management application such as iView²) and unmanaged modules follow. Managed Modules To manage one or more iMcV-Modules, an SNMP agent must be present in the chassis.
  • Page 8 iMcV-PIM TP/FO -10 Board iMcV-LIM TX/FX and TX/SSFX -30 Board About LinkLoss, FiberAlert, and Pulsing FiberAlert Some iMcV-Modules include advanced troubleshooting features that help locate silent failures on the network. Troubleshooting features include:...
  • Page 9 The appropriate LNK (link) LED is lit to indicate this. The IMC Networks media converter also sends out link pulses from its copper and fiber transmitters, but normally has no way of knowing whether the cable to the other device is intact and the link pulses are reaching the other end.
  • Page 10 FiberAlert minimizes the problems associated with the loss of one strand of fiber. If a strand is unavailable, the IMC Networks device at the receiver end notes the loss of link. The device will then stop transmitting data and the link signal until a signal or link pulse is received.
  • Page 11 If unsure of how best to implement these features in a specific configuration, please contact IMC Networks technical support at (800) 624-1070 (U.S./Canada), +32-16- 550880 (Europe) or via e-mail at: techsupport@imcnetworks.com Twisted Pair Crossover/Straight-Through Connections iMcV-Modules support both crossover and straight-through CAT5 twisted pair cabling...
  • Page 12: Installation Troubleshooting

    Configure Auto Negotiation on an iMcV-LIM by adjusting the DIP Switch setting (for unmanaged modules) or via the management software. Refer to the diagrams in this manual for switch location and settings. Installation Troubleshooting During installation, first test the fiber and twisted pair connections with all troubleshooting features disabled, then enable these features, if desired, just before final installation.
