DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

You must disconnect power to the IPE module before installing equipment.

Use caution when disconnecting AC or DC power. Electric shock can occur.

12 Repeat these steps to install the left side of the I/O panel (side labelled

Left facing outwards).

End of Procedure

Procedure 6

Installing the new card slot label

1 Remove the backing from the new Card Slot label to expose the adhesive.

2 Apply the new Card Slot label to the right hand side of the lower card guide/rail, covering up existing markings for slots 8 through 15.

Procedure 7

Installing the Ethernet cables

1 Remove the right hand side access cover from the front of the shelf.

2 Remove the left hand side access cover from the rear of the shelf.

3 Connect one of the supplied Cat-5e ethernet cables to the RJ45 coupler (labelled “E”) on the right hand side of the I/O Panel (see Figure 24 on

page 116).

4 Route this cable through the left side access to the front of the shelf.

5 Connect this cable to the MG XPEC MB side faceplate port (also labelled “E”).

6 Repeat for MG XPEC MB “T”.

7 Repeat the above connections for the MG XPEC DB “E” and “T” ports using the left hand side I/O panel.

Note: If this is a dual-homing configuration, repeat the above

connections for the “1E” and “2T” ports of both MG XPEC MB and DB. Route the MB connections to the right hand side rear I/O Panel and the DB connections the left hand side rear I/O Panel.

End of Procedure

Extended System Monitoring and Power Fail Transfer

The CS 1000E Call Server can monitor the eXtended System Monitor (XSM) status of the large system columns. The MG XPEC card can activate a Power Fail Transfer (PFT) if a link to the Call Server is lost, or if the MG XPEC card reboots.

You need the following equipment to enable XSM status monitoring: • MG XPEC card in an IPE module

• Master XSM for MG XPEC (NT8D22AEE5) • XSM cable (NTDW26BAE6)

• NT8D46AG cable in a Meridian 1 or CS 1000M core/net shelf The following equipment is optional, but required to enable PFT features:

• PFT unit connected to the MDF field

• Customer provided and modified Cat-5 cable for PFT

The NTDW26BAE6 XSM cable is shown in Figure 25 on page 117.

Figure 25

Procedure 8

Installing the XSM cable

1 Connect the P1 connection of the NTDW26BAE6 XSM cable to the SL0 connector on the backplane of the NT8D37 IPE module (see Figure 27 on

page 119).

Figure 27

NT8D37 IPE module SL0 connector

2 Connect the J2 connection of the NTDW26BAE6 XSM cable to a RJ45 coupler in the I/O panel on the IPE module.

3 Route the NTDW26BAE6 XSM cable from the IPE module to the core/net shelf which contains a NT8D46AG cable.

4 Disconnect the P3 connection on the NT8D46AG cable from the SDI card in the core/net shelf (see Figure 28 on page 120).

Figure 28

NT8D46AG cable P3 connector in core/net shelf

5 Connect the P3 connector on the NT8D46AG cable into the J1 connector on the NTDW26BAE6 XSM cable.

6 Ensure the master XSM is NT8D22AEE5 to support the MG XPEC card, see Figure 29 on page 121. Configure switches on master XSM to the following to identify connection to a MG XPEC card:

— SW1-1 switch to OFF — SW2-2 switch to ON

Figure 29

NT8D22AEE5 master XSM

Note: Running an older master XSM firmware (NT8D22AC/AD), or failure to set the XSM switches properly causes the column top alarm LED to light, and disables the IPE ring generator.

7 To enable PFT, connect two signals from the XSM cable J2 connector to PFT signals LFBEN and LFBENR at the MDF field. A PFT wiring schematic is shown in Figure 30 on page 123.

You must modify the Cat-5 cable to relay the following signals. — J2.1 = LFBEN

You only need to modify the Cat-5 cable at the end connecting to the MDF field. Connect the RJ45 connector on the Cat-5 cable to the J2 connector on the IPE module I/O panel. Connect the modified end of the Cat-5 cable to the MDF field connections for your PFT unit.

Figure 30

PFT activates if the relay connection between LFBEN and LFBENR closes. The PFT automatically activates if the MG XPEC link to the Call Server is lost, or if the MG XPEC motherboard reboots.

End of Procedure

Clock reference

In configurations with DECT spanning of multiple IPE modules (or with Call Pilot MGATE cards), Clock Reference cables synchronize the backplane TDM clocks of multiple MG XPECs.

You do not require clock synchronization of multiple IPE modules in normal situations with DLC, ALC, or other ordinary peripherals.

Procedure 9

Installing the Clock Reference cables

1 Connect a customer provided Cat-5 or Cat-5e straight through cable to the faceplate CLK-OUT port of the MG XPEC selected as clock master (selected at random).

Note: Do not connect a cable to the CLK-IN port on the MG XPEC card you selected as clock master.

2 Route this cable to the next MG XPEC in the clock chain.

3 Connect to the CLK-IN port of this MG XPEC.

4 Repeat this series of connections for all MG XPECs in the clock chain.

Note: A maximum of 4 MG XPECs may be chained. Avaya recommends you to use Ethernet cables shorter than 5 meters for clock referencing.

End of Procedure

Final assembly and configuration

After performing the MG XPEC card installation procedures, perform the following procedures to configure the MG XPEC card.

Procedure 10

Preparing IPE module for configuration

After all equipment is installed:

1 Replace all covers removed during installation.

2 Connect all IPE MDF cables to I/O panel.

3 Connect all LAN cables to I/O panel.

4 Re-label MDF connections to match new loop and card assignments.

5 Route both TTY0 cables to a local workstation to perform initial configuration.

6 Re-connect AC or DC power to the IPE module.

End of Procedure

Procedure 11

Configuring the MG XPEC card

Note: You must perform the configuration procedure twice for an MG XPEC card. You must individually configure the MG XPEC motherboard and daughterboard with mgcsetup to fully configure an MG XPEC card.

1 Connect one of the two TTY0 serial cables to a local workstation.

2 Configure the local workstation terminal to 9660 baud 8-N-1 and VT-100 emulation.

3 Turn on power to IPE module. The first time the MG XPEC card boots, it automatically enters the mgcsetup menu.

4 Enter the ELAN IP, gateway, subnet mask, and Call Server IP address with mgcsetup. You configure the MG XPEC card the same way as configuring a MGC card, see“Configuring the Gateway Controller (mgcsetup)” on page 164.

5 Repeat steps 1 to 4. Use the other TTY0 serial cable to configure the other half of the MG XPEC card

Figure 31 on page 126 and Figure 32 on page 127 show an IPE shelf with XPEC and MG XPEC installed.
