2. INTRODUCTION
This guide concerns the installation of one or more option cards.
The operation and use of these option cards is presented in the full Netsilon
9/11 guide (available from the website www.bodet-time.com).
2.1 Checking the package
Carefully unpack and check the contents of the package. These should include:
The option card(s),
Accessories for mounting the option card(s).
2.2 Saving the configuration
We recommend that you save the current Netsilon configuration before installing an option card.
To save a configuration via the Netsilon web server, follow these steps:
- SYSTEM menu > Tools > Updating and backup.
- Click , and a file named “export. nets” will download to your PC.
2.3 Safety
Netsilon can be equipped with several power supply sources: if both AC and DC power supply options are present, turning off the switch on the rear panel will not disconnect all power supply sources.
3. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
The installation method is identical regardless of the option card installed.
However, there are some specific operations to be performed depending on the
option card to install. Please note the following slots compatibility:
– Slot A / B : NETWORK (port RJ45) and NETWORK FIBRE (port SFP) option cards,
– Slot A / B / C / D : PTP (RJ45 + SFP), IRIG INPUT and IRIG OUTPUT option
cards.
If the new option card is installed in place of an existing option card (involving removal of the latter), it is necessary to uninstall the removed option card via the web server (see Chapter 5.5 Removing an option card). Once this uninstallation has been completed, the product will redetect the option card with its new slot number.
> OPEN NETSILON
> INSTALL AN OPTION CARD
This operation is valid for the Network option card (RJ45), the Network Fiber option card (SFP) and the PTP option card (RJ45 / SFP). Be sure to connect the SATA cable to the correct connector on the motherboard corresponding to the slot where the option card is installed.
– For the PTP option card, connect a MCX cable between the option card and Netsilon:
– For the IRIG INPUT option card, position the jumper to select the input impedance: 4.7K / 600 / 50 Ohms or high impedance (no jumper). By default, the jumper is positioned on the option card for 600 Ohms.
This operation is only valid for the IRIG INPUT option card.
9) Close up the Netsilon device by refitting the black cover identically to
its original condition.
10) Connect the power supply and turn the switch to ON (I).
11) Connect the network cable to the ETH0 port to access the web server.
