ACCULINK 3151 CSU
Quick Reference
Document Number 3151-A2-GL11-40
February 1998
Quick Start Procedure
The following procedure is for experienced CSU users who are familiar with the 3151
CSU installation process and have no special requirements for their application. See
the
ACCULINK 315x Channel Service Unit Operator’s Guide
(3150-A2-GB21) for more
information. A copy is included with the Auxiliary Backplane.
1. Install the Auxiliary Backplane onto the 3000 Series Carrier. See the
ACCULINK
3151 CSU and 3161 DSU/CSU General Information Guide
(3100-A2-GK40) for
installation procedures.

2
2. Attach the DTE cable (DB15) to the appropriate DTE connector on the Auxiliary
Backplane. (See the
COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier Installation Manual
(3000-A2-GA31) for detailed cable and connector information.) Connect the other
end of the DTE cable to the customer premises equipment.
3. Attach the network cable to the Auxiliary Backplane using either a 50-pin cable or
the T1 Network Interface Adapter. Connect the other end of the network cable to
the connection provided by the telephone company.

4. Turn on the power to the 3000 Series Carrier.

3
5. Insert the CSU circuit card into the appropriate slot in the carrier. The power-up
self-test begins.
495-1479
6. If you intend to use front panel emulation, connect the cable from the PC to Port 2
on the Auxiliary Backplane using the COM port adapter and COM-port-to-PC cable.
7. The Factory 1 configuration for ESF framing format and B8ZS line coding format is
the default configuration and is appropriate for most networks. If this configuration
does not work for you, try the Factory 2 configuration for D4 framing format and
AMI line coding format. To further customize configuration options, refer to
Changing Configuration Options
in Chapter 3,
Operation
, and Appendix C,
Configuration Options
, in the
ACCULINK 315x Channel Service Unit Operator’s
Guide.
8. During the power-up self-test, the FAIL LED flashes, then all LEDs blink twice.
When the test is complete, verify that the CSU is functional by observing that the
OK, NETWORK SIG, and DTE SIG LEDs are lit.

Configuration options are accessed from the Cnfig branch of the front panel menu.
