Introduction
This chapter describes how to install the MR9600-100 Controller into a CommPlete Communication Server
CC9600 chassis. This equipment should only be installed by properly qualified service personnel.
The MR9600-100 Controller assembly consists of the MR9600-100 Controller card, an integrated Ethernet
switch card, and a common front panel. Figure 3 shows the layout of the MR9600-100 card without the
switch. The MR9600-100 assembly plugs into bus connectors on the inside of the CC9600 chassis. Three
communications connectors on the switch module are accessible from the back of the CC9600 chassis: a
DB-9 serial connector for MR9600-100 diagnostics and configuration, and two 10/100M bps connectors for
network access.

Installation Procedure
1. Unpack the MR9600-100 assembly from its packaging, and save the packaging for possible future
use. Perform a visual inspection of the MR9600-100. If you are concerned about the condition of the
MR9600-100, call Technical Support for instructions.
2. Remove the blank controller panel or previous MR9600-100 controller from the CC9600 chassis. The
MR9600-100 is hot-swappable.
3. Holding the MR9600-100 by its handle and the edges of the bottom panel, place the MR9600-100
into the open controller slot of the CC9600. Make sure the edges of the MR9600-100 card mate
properly with the plastic guides in the CC9600.
4. Slide the MR9600-100 into the CC9600 chassis until you feel the MR9600-100’s connectors fit into
the bus connectors at the back of the CC9600.
5. Tighten the MR9600-100's retaining screws.
6. Turn on the PS9600 power supplies, if they are off.
7. Note the PS9600 LED indicators. If they are not lit, see Chapter 6. If they are lit, proceed with
MultiModemManager operation (Chapter 4 of the MultiModemManager
User Guide
manual).
Note: A self-test runs each time the CommPlete Communications Server is turned on. Refer to Chapter 5
of the MultiModemManager
User Guide
manual for more details on the power-on self-test.
Ethernet Cabling
Two female 10/100M bps connectors are accessible from the back of the CC9600 chassis. Connect one of
these connectors to the TCP/IP network that the supervisor console is attached to. The supervisor console
