Summary
When setting up the NV5128 for the first time or reconfiguring a NV5128, there are certain steps
that must be performed. It is recommended that initial installation and later reconfiguration tasks be
performed in a specific order to avoid possible complications.
Perform installation and reconfiguration tasks in the following order:
1 Mount the router in a rack. If reconfiguring, skip this step if the router is already rack mounted
and not being remounted. See Rack Mount
on page 37.
2 Connect power, being sure to install PS6000 modules after power is connected. See Connecting
the Router to Power on page 38.
3 Install backplanes in the appropriate rear backplane slots. If reconfiguring, removed backplanes
and reinstall in the newly desired slots. See Installing Backplanes
on page 40.
4 Install active cards in the appropriate front card slots. If reconfiguring, removed cards and rein-
stall in the newly desired slots. Make sure that the appropriate backplane is installed for each
active card. See Installing Active Cards
on page 44.
5 Make connections between the source of incoming signals and the destination of outgoing sig-
nals, and the router. If reconfiguring, change signal connections to match new backplane and
active card configuration. See Making Signal Connections
on page 50.
