3 - 10 ONline Ethernet 24-Port 10BASE-T Module Installation Guide
Installing the Module
You do not need to power down the ONline System Concentrator to install
the 24-Port Module. You can insert the module while the concentrator is
operating (this is called a hot swap).
To install a 24-Port Module:
1. Depending on whether or not you have a management module
installed in the hub, follow one of the steps below:
If network management is not available, set the DIP switches on
the board (if different than the default values). Refer to Table 3-2
and Table 3-3 for an explanation of the DIP switch settings.
If a network management module is installed in your
concentrator:
If your management module is not EMM Version v4.3 or
later (for Model Number 5124M-TP) or EMM Version v3.2
or later (for Model Number 5124M-TPCL), it does not
support the particular 24-Port Module. Enter the SET
DEVICE DIP_CONFIGURATION command to configure the
24-Port Module from DIP switch settings.
If your management module is at the appropriate
software level, go to step 2 and complete the installation,
then configure the 24-Port Module using the commands
described in the Configuring the Module section.
2. For Model Number 5124M-TPCL, locate one open slot in the
concentrator. Remove the blank panel on the concentrator to expose
a slot for the module.
For Model Number 5124M-TP, locate two adjacent open slots in the
concentrator. If there are no adjacent open slots, remove two
adjacent blank panels on the concentrator to expose the slots you
need to install the module.
