Installation Procedures
Before installing the system, be sure you read the safety instructions in the front of
this guide.
!
WARNING:
!
There are no customer-serviceable components inside the system modules or
carrier. There are hazardous voltages within that can cause severe or fatal
personal injury. DO NOT OPEN MODULES.
The PARTNER Advanced Communications System can be installed in one of
three configurations:
■ Stand-alone PARTNER ACS processor module.
■ 2-Slot Carrier, which can hold up to two modules.
■ 5-Slot Carrier, which can hold up to five modules and includes a cover.
The stand-alone processor module or a carrier and its modules are referred to as
the control unit. The control unit must always be wall-mounted. See the following
sections for wall-mounting instructions.
Wall-Mounting a Stand-Alone
PARTNER ACS Processor Module
Install the PARTNER ACS processor module within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of a
properly grounded wall outlet (not controlled by a switch) and the network
interface jacks.
Use the following procedure to wall-mount the module:
1 a. Hold the PARTNER ACS
processor module against the
wall with the line and extension
jacks facing left.
b. Leave at least 1 foot (0.3
meters) clearance at the top,
front, and right side, and at
least 2 feet (0.6 meter) at the
bottom and left side. This
allows you to access the jacks
or expand the system with
another module, and ensures
adequate ventilation.
