    5. Insert the assembly and lock it in place by pushing up the securing latches
    on the two circuit packs. (It is normal for the two circuit packs to feel
    loosely connected to each other. This is to allow some give when you are
    seating them into the two slots of the backplane.) If the switch is powered
    on, the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system will boot automatically.
    NOTE:
    If the switch is not powered on, wait until it is and then proceed to
    Step 6.
    6. As the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system comes up, watch the Liquid
    Crystal Display (LCD) on the faceplate (see Figure 2-5). The LCD
    identifies the DEFINITY LAN Gateway states and alarms.

    Group 300 Cable Connection
    The DEFINITY LAN Gateway does not use this connection.
    LAN Connection
    Make the following connections:
    A 10BaseT twisted pair cable with a male RJ-45 connector must be
    present at the wall field, no further than 25 feet from the back of the switch
    where DEFINITY LAN Gateway resides.  The customer is responsible for
    this LAN connection.
    A 104A connecting block will be mounted on the wall within reach of this
    connector. This is supplied by AT&T.  Eight wires must be hard-connected
    across the two mounting blocks inside the 104A prior to mounting it to the
    wall, as shown in Figure 2-7, 104A Mounting Block.  The ends of each
    wire are stripped of insulation.  A punch-down tool is used to press the
    ends of these eight wires into the mounting blocks.  Four protector caps
    snap over the top of the mounting blocks.
    NOTE:
    AT&T service technicians dispatched for DEFINITY LAN Gateway
    system installation and maintenance may not troubleshoot the
    customer LAN.  The demarcation point for the DEFINITY LAN
    Gateway LAN is the point of connection into the connecting block
    where the cord plugs in.  The customer is responsible for the
    following: the LAN cable, the connector at the end of the cable for
    connection into the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system, and LAN
    administration not performed by AT&T on the DEFINITY LAN
    Gateway system.  After cutover, the customer is also responsible for
    maintaining the TCP/IP addresses and administration on the
    DEFINITY LAN Gateway system unless otherwise specified by
    contract.

    TN2170 RS-232 Connection
    This connection is used for customer access to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway
    application.  See Task 7 for wiring information.
    Task 7:  Install the Terminal (Optional)bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
    This task is optional, but the temporary installation described below is
    recommended to facilitate initial administration of the DEFINITY LAN Gateway
    application.
    You can install a terminal or a terminal emulator device, such as a PC or laptop,
    to perform administration and maintenance operations.  The terminal may be
    permanently installed, or may be temporarily installed when direct administration
    or maintenance is desired.  The connection for a directly attached terminal is
    always available for AT&T services personnel.  This terminal is usually
    connected via a direct cable to Admin/Port B, but can be connected remotely if
    desired.
    NOTE:
    Once initial administration is completed, the directly connected terminal
    may be disconnected and further administration and maintenance may be
    accomplished over the LAN with a terminal emulator that supports Telnet
    access.
    The terminal can be connected to Admin/Port B in one of four ways:
    Via a direct connection
    Via modems
    Via Asynchronous Data Units (ADUs)
    Via 7400A data sets
    The connectivity for all supported terminals is similar. Therefore, the subtasks for
    this task are the same for all supported terminals.  See Appendix B for a list of
    supported terminals and modems.
    If you are connecting a PC using G3-MA software (formerly SAT-PC) as an
    DEFINITY LAN Gateway administration/maintenance terminal, see 
    DEFINITY
    Communications System Generic 3 Management Applications Station
    Provisioning, 
    555-229-202, for installation instructions.
    If you are connecting a generic PC with a terminal emulation package, you must
    ensure that the terminal emulation package is set to support a terminal type
    listed in Appendix B.

    							Installationbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
    Keep in mind that the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is data terminal
    equipment (DTE), and the switch is data communications equipment (DCE).
    Therefore, you may need to install a null modem to complete the DTE/DCE pair
    when connecting the PC.
    MFB Port Usage
    The MFB Y-cable has two RS-232C connectors labeled Main/Port A and
    Admin/Port B.
    The administration and maintenance terminal should be connected to Admin/Port
    B.  Some system diagnostic messages, created only when the system is
    initializing, are sent to Main/Port A.  These additional messages are not useful
    during normal operation of the system.
    Perform one of the four Subtasks (7A, 7B, 7C, or 7D, depending on the
    connection type) to connect a system-access terminal to Admin/Port B.  Use
    Worksheet B-1, Terminals/Modems, to determine which tasks to complete.
    The descriptions of Tasks 7B, 7C, and 7D assume that you are connecting a
    remote terminal to Admin/Port B.  You can also use these tasks for a remote
    connection to Main/Port A by substituting A for B in the descriptions.
    Task 7A: Install a Terminal via a Direct
    Connection
    Refer to Figures 2-8, Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection, and 2-9,
    Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection (DC Switch Only), while performing
    this task.

    1. If you are installing a new terminal, unpack it according to the instructions
    supplied with the terminal.
    2. Place the terminal on a suitable table within 15 feet of the switch cabinet if
    you have a 20-foot ED-1E434 Group 311 cable, or within 45 feet if you
    have a 50-foot ED-1E434 Group 311 cable, and connect the keyboard.
    3. Connect an ED-1E434 Group 311 cable between the DEFINITY LAN
    Gateway system MFB and the terminal:
    a. Attach one end of an ED-1E434 Group 311 cable (supplied with the
    DEFINITY LAN Gateway system PEC) to the RS-232 connector
    labeled PORT B on the MFB Y-cable.
    b. If you connected a 116A to the PORT A and PORT B connectors
    on the Y-cable (in Task 4), attach the ED-1E434 Group 311 cable
    to the 116A (for a DTE connection). For a DCE connection, attach
    another null modem to the 116A, and attach the ED-1E434 Group
    311 cable to the other end of the null modem.
    c. For a 715 BCT, attach the other end of the ED-1E434 Group 311
    cable to the DCE connector on the back of the terminal. Then skip
    to Step 4.
    For a 513 or equivalent BCT, attach the other end to the female
    connector on an H600-258 Group 1 null modem.
    d. Connect the male connector on the null modem to an RS-232 serial
    port connector on the back of the terminal.
    4. Plug the terminal power cord into a wall outlet and power on the terminal.
    5. Set the terminal options. See Appendix B, ``Supported Terminals and
    Modems/Option Settings, for a complete list of option settings for
    supported terminals.
    NOTE:
    When installing a serial printer on all but a 610 or 615 BCT, set the
    options on the printer as described in the manual supplied with the
    printer, then set the corresponding options on the terminal to match.
    On the 610/615, set the terminal options first, then set the printer
    options.
    If the terminal is installed correctly (and the DEFINITY LAN Gateway
    system is in either OAM or OS state), the screen displays the login
    prompt.
    If the terminal does not display the login prompt when the
    DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is in one of the above states, try
    pressing the 
    Return key a few times. If the login prompt still does not
    appear, write down the state displayed on the LCD and then see the
    troubleshooting procedure for terminal connections in Appendix D.
