3. Insert the Module into the FOCUS chassis.
Carefully insert the 6NR/6NV module into the
top and bottom grooves of an open slot in the
FOCUS chassis. Slide it all the way in until it is
well seated in the slot. Lock it into place using
the black ejector clip on the front of the
module.
When you first insert the module, the red/green
status LED is red. If the module is functional,
the status LED turns green within 20 seconds.
If the module is non-functional, or the chassis
is locked, the status LED will remain red.
4. Connect the interface module to the FOCUS
chassis.
Attach the appropriate interface module to the
rear of the FOCUS chassis so that it connects to
the module.
5. Connect the proper wiring/connector to the
interface module.
The 6NR/6NV interfaces are shown in Figure
26-1.
26.3.2 Software Settings
Once you have completed the hardware installa-
tion/connections, you can configure the 6NR/6NV
module using the FOCUS Configuration Software
(FCS). See figure 26-2 for the configuration dialog
box of the 6NR/6NV module.
Fig. 26-3 shows how to map a 6NR/6NV module.
When setting N for values greater than 2, it is
necessary to leave empty chassis slots to the right
of the module. One empty slot for every 2 values of
N greater than N=2. (i.e. one empty slot for N=3 or
4, two empty slots for N=5 or 6 etc.).
When applying the 6NR/6NV to an MV3 FOCUS
chassis and if N>2, it is necessary to start the
bandwidth mapping at least 3 slots to the right of
the module. MV4 and MV5 systems do not have
this restriction. See Figure 26-3 for a mapping
example.
26.3.3 Status Indicators
This module has three status indicators as shown in
Figure 26-4. The red/green status LED is green if

Note: While the 6NR (64R/G) interface and 6NV (64V)
interfaces look identical, the 64V has an additional
signal tied to ground.
