Configuration Overview
The Wide Bank 28 DS3 Multiplexer is configured at the factory with defaults that are common in the
industry. If the default configuration must be changed, or if the setup is lost, perform the following steps
to set up a basic configuration.
1. Use the restore defaults command to restore the configuration to factory defaults.
2. Change each individual item, as required, to match your specific application.
The basic configuration settings presented in this chapter are examples. It may be necessary to use
parameters different from those shown in these procedures to make the Wide Bank work properly in
specific installations. See the command descriptions in Chapter 8 for more information about specific
commands.
