Site Requirements
This section describes the requirements your site must meet for safe
installation and operation of the system.
Safety Requirements
For your protection, please read these safety instructions completely
before operating the equipment.
• Look carefully for potential hazards in your work area: moist floors,
ungrounded power cables, frayed power cords, missing safety
grounds and so forth.
• Locate the main circuit breaker within the room.
• Locate the emergency power OFF switch within the room.
• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit.
• Use only the power cord supplied with the system.
• The power cord should only be connected to a power outlet that has a
protective ground contact.
• Ensure that the power cord is easily accessible from the back of the
system at all times.
• Place the equipment in a well-ventilated area where the vents are free
from obstruction.
• Do not place heavy objects directly on top of the RMX 1500 unit.
• Do not use liquids around your equipment.
Rack Mount Safety Precautions
The following precautions should be followed with regards to rack mount
safety:
• Keep the area around the RMX 1500 clean and free of clutter.
• Decide on a suitable location for the equipment rack that will hold the
RMX 1500 unit. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is
well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and
electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed
near a grounded power outlet.
• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully
extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.

• In a single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
• In multiple rack installations, the r
• Always make sure the rack is stable be
from the rack.
• You should extend only one component
more simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
• Before you install the rails, determine the placement of each
ponent in the rack.
com
• Install the heaviest components on the bottom of the rack first, and
work up.
then
• Allow the power supply units to cool before
• Always keep the rack’s trays and card
servicing, to maintain proper cooling.
Installation Precautions
When handling electronic components, standard anti-static precautions must be
observed:
• Wear a grounding strap
• Handle cards by their edges only and do not touch their components or
connector pins
• Keep components in anti-static bags, when not installed in the RMX1500

The RTM ISDN card supports up to 120 audio participants, regardless of
whether the spans are E1 or T1.
ISDN/PSTN Clock Source
Each RTM ISDN 1500 has its own primary and secondary clock source.
The first span to synchronize becomes the primary clock source and the
second span to synchronize becomes the secondary clock source. This
clock is used to synchronize ISDN spans only (it is not the system clock).
A single clock source triggers an alarm that can be turned

RMX 1500 Power Supply
Subject to availability on the RMX 1500 there are two types of power
supplies (Power-One & Astec), both are identical in their functionality.
Power Supply LEDs
On the RMX 1500 there are three LEDs that indicate the power status.
