2.3 Installation and Setup
The ASM-60 standalone unit is designed for desktop installation and is delivered as

To install ASM-60:
1. Determine the required configuration of ASM-60, in accordance with your
application.
2. Set the DIP switches of the Ethernet interface module accordingly.
3. Connect the line (see Connecting the Line below).
4. Connect the DTE (see Connecting the DTE below).
5. Connect power to the unit (see Connecting the Power below).
Performing the Internal Settings
ASM-60 with HSSI interface does not contain any jumpers or switches for user
settings. For instructions on configuring ASM-60 units with an Ethernet interface
module, refer to the respective appendix of this manual.
Access to the inside of the equipment is permitted only to the authorized and
qualified personnel.
To avoid accidental electric shock, always disconnect the interface cables and
the power cord before removing the unit from its casing.
Line voltages are present inside ASM-60 when it is connected to power and/or
the lines. Moreover, under certain fault conditions, dangerous voltages may
appear on the lines connected to the unit.
Any adjustment, maintenance and repair of the opened instrument under
voltage must be avoided as much as possible and, when inevitable, should be
carried out only by a skilled technician who is aware of the hazard involved.
Capacitors inside the unit may still be charged even after the unit has been
disconnected from its source of power.
ASM-60 contains components sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent
ESD damage, avoid touching the internal components. Before moving the jumper,
touch the ASM-60 frame.
