Getting Started
The SCG Series Fiberoptic Switch consists of the rack-mounted switch unit and a power cord.
Before Initializing and Operating the Unit
Inspect the unit for any signs of damage.
Read the user’s manual thoroughly, and become familiar with all safety symbols and
instructions to ensure that the unit is operated and maintained safely.
Initial Inspection
Warning
To avoid electrical shock, do not initialize or operate the unit if it bears any sign
of damage to any portion of its exterior surface, such as the outer cover or
panels.
Check that the unit and contents are complete:
1. Wear an anti-static wrist strap, and work in an electrostatic discharge (ESD) controlled area.
2. Inspect the shipping container for any indication of excessive shock to the contents, and
inspect the contents to ensure that the shipment is complete.
3. Inspect the unit for structural damage that can have occurred during shipping.
4. Ensure that the power switch is set to
O
(off).
5. Connect the unit to a power source, using the AC power cord provided.
6. Set the power switch to
I
(on). All key lamps and status LEDs light. The unit designation and
the firmware version are displayed. If no malfunction is detected during power-up, all lamps
and LEDs turn off and the display reads the switch number and channel connection status. If
a malfunction is detected during the power-up sequence, an error message is displayed.
7. Set the power switch to
O
(off) and disconnect the AC power cord from the power supply
and from the SCG switch.
8. Keep the packaging.
Immediately inform JDS Uniphase and, if necessary, the carrier if the contents of the shipment
are incomplete, if the unit or any of its components are damaged or defective, or if the unit does
not pass the initial inspection.
