STATUS
PBXs and other equipment with DSX-1/FT1 interfaces. The modules functions are very similar to those of the Total Access 850 integrated DSX-1 interface.

Features

The Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module includes the fol­lowing features:
• Single port, single slot module with DSX-1 interface
• Allows for support of multiple PBXs or other equipment with DSX-1/FT1 interface
• Installs in any slot one through six
• RCU support only

Functional Description

The DSX-1 Module installs into the Total Access 850 system to provide an additional DSX-1 interface for support of multiple PBXs or other equipment with a DSX-1/FT1 interface. The module is functional in any of the six slots. The DSX-1 Module is only operational with the RCU commons.

Physical Description

The faceplate of the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module dis­plays the module name, part number, CL EI code and status LEDs. The module name, part number, and CLEI code may also be found through the terminal menus. The dimensions of the card itself are approximately 9.5 inches x 6 inches.

3. INSTALLING THE MODULE

Carefully unpack and inspect the Total Access 850 DSX­1 Module for shipping damages. If you suspect damage has occurred during shipping, immediately file a claim with the carrier, then contact ADTRAN Technical Sup­port (see Warranty and Customer Service on page 4). If pos­sible, keep the original shipping container for returning the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module for repair or for ver­ification of shipping damage.

4. USING THE MODULE

You can configure and control the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module from a variety of sources, including the following:
• The terminal menus, allowing detailed configura­tion, status, and diagnostics via the DB-9 craft port on the front of the card, the RJ-45 craft port on the rear of the chassis, or telnet.

The Terminal Menus

The terminal menus are available by using either a VT-100 terminal attached to the Total Access 850 active RCU’s craft port, the chassis’ ADMIN port, or a Telnet session established through the RCU’s Ethernet port. The Total Access 850 System Manual provides detailed instructions on using any of these management ap­proaches.
Terminal Menu Structure
The Total Access 850 uses a hierarchical menu structure to provide access to all of its features. The top-most menu level leads to submenus which are grouped by functionality. All menu items display in the terminal window.
Accessing the Module Terminal Menus
Once you are connected to a terminal, press eral times until a
LOGIN prompt displays. Enter the de-
Enter sev-
fault, password, in lowercase characters (the login system is case sensitive). TheTotal Access 850 upper­level
SYSTEM INFO menu opens.
To access the terminal menu for the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module:
1. Use the arrow keys to navigate to the menu and press
Enter.
MODULES
2. Select the module by using the arrow keys to high­light the specific module.
3. Press
Enter while the module slot is highlighted.
Menu options for the module now display on the terminal.
Refer to the Total Access 850 System Manual for detailed instructions on navi­gating through the terminal menu.
Passwords
To edit fields in the terminal menus, you must have the appropriate password level. Each menu description in this section indicates the password level required for write and read access. Security level
FULL users can
view and edit every available fie ld. Security level
STATUS users can view most fields but cannot edit.
