DSX-1
1200385L1
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.

The remainder of this document describes
the menu items available when managing
the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module via
the terminal menus.
1.If present, remove the cover plate from the appropriate option slot of the Total Access 850 chassis.
2.Position the module to fit in the lower and upper
grooves.
3.Slide the module into the option slot pressing
equally on the top and bottom of the faceplate until
the module is firmly positioned against the back of
the chassis.
4.Push in the ejector on the lower left-hand side of
the module to finish seating the module.
Auto-detection of Modules
The Total Access 850 RCU automatically detects the
presence of the Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module when
the module is installed into the system. You are not required to reboot.
Wiring Connections
The Total Access 850 DSX-1 Module connects to two 64pin Champ connectors located on the backplane. (Pinouts are given in the System Manual, Section 2, Engi-
neering Guidelines.)

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.

ORMAT
This sets the frame format for the T1 interface. The
setting must match the frame format of the circuit to
which the interface is connected. Choices are ESF
and SF. Extended Superframe (ESF) provides a nondisruptive means of full-time monitoring on the facility datalink (FDL). Default is ESF.
This sets the line code for the T1 interface. The setting must match the line code of the circuit to which
the interface is connected. Choices are B8ZS (bipolar
with 8-zero substitution) and AMI (alternate mark
inversion). Default is B8ZS.
