X7 Router Mounting
3. Connect the TX and RX coax cables to the X7 Router and secure but do not over-tighten.
See D.1, Coax Cable Preparation on page 33 for preparation details.
CAUTION: Do not connect or disconnect the
Tx or Rx IFL cable while the
satellite router is powered on; this action may result in damage to the BUC,
LNB, and/or X7 Router.
4. Connect the AC power cord to the power source. This will power ON the X7 Router.
5. Monitor the front and rear panel lights during power on startup. See Section 3.1,
X7 Router Front LEDs on page 8.
6. Prepare PC for X7 Router connection as specified in Section 4.6, Preparing the PC for
Connection to the X7 Router on page 18.
7. Login PC to Web iSite as specified in Section 4.7, Web Interface LED Status Indicators on
page 18.
8. Install the firmware and configure the satellite router as specified in Section 4.8,
Configuring the X7 Router on page 18.
4.5.2 Installing With a 24-48 VDC Power Supply (Option 3)
CAUTION: If negative voltages are used such as Telecom -48VDC, the negative
most voltage is always connected to –ve terminal (in the Telecom case this
would be -48V) and the positive most voltage is always connected to the +ve
terminal (in the Telecom case this would be 0VR). Chassis can be referenced
to +ve, -ve or left floating (i.e. not connected to either +ve or –ve) as
required as the power module is fully isolated input to chassis.
For an X7 Router using a 36-76 VDC power supply (Option 3):
1. First, perform steps 1-6 of the Installation Checklist, Section 4.1, on page 13.
2. Set the X7 Router power switch to the OFF position (0).
3. Prepare the power cables per the instructions in Appendix E, DC Power Supply Installation
on page 41 and connect the power cables.
CAUTION: The BUC power requirement must match the proper voltage. The
BUC may sustain damage if used with the incorrect power supply.
4. Select the appropriate BUC voltage (+24 or +48 V), by sliding the BUC voltage selector
switch (Table 3-3, X7 Router Rear Panel Connector and LED Descriptions on page 11:
Callout #8). 24 V BUC voltage selection is the factory setting.
5. Set the X7 Router power switch to the ON position (1).
6. Upon powering up, a Level 0 Reset occurs. Reset options are available in Appendix F, X7
Reset on page 45.
