Chapter 3: Pre-Installation Activities
Configure Controller Cards
It may be necessary to modify the configuration switches on the utility bus
controllers and radio sector controllers. The cards are identical and have the same
configuration. The NPM uses a configuration of these cards that differs from the
manufacturer’s original settings.
NOTE: If the controller cards are pre-installed in the shelves,
then they have already been configured and this procedure is not
required.
Table 3.6 shows the correct settings of the controller cards’ configuration
switches.
