WARNING
ALL RFL 9785 TERMINALS ARE EQUIPPED WITH A CLEAR PLASTIC
PROTECTIVE COVER THAT EXTENDS ACROSS THE REAR OF THE CHASSIS.
THIS COVER IS INTENDED TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM POTENTIAL
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES THAT MAY BE PRESENT ON THE REAR-PANEL
TERMINAL BLOCKS. THIS COVER MUST ONLY BE REMOVED BY QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL WHEN ACCESS TO THE REAR PANEL IS REQUIRED. IT
MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE PLACING THE TERMINAL IN SERVICE.
WARNING
THE MODULES IN THE RFL 9785 ARE NOT HOT PLUGGABLE. CHASSIS
POWER MUST BE TURNED OFF BEFORE REMOVING OR INSTALLING ANY
MODULES. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN COMPONENT DAMAGE.

INTRODUCTION
This section contains the instructions necessary for operating the RFL 9785. All front panel controls
and indicators are shown and described, and an initial startup procedure is included for verifying
operation before placing the RFL 9785 into continuous service.
4.2
FRONT PANEL CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
The front panel of the RFL 9785 terminal contains controls and indicators which are used to monitor
system functions during normal operation. These controls and indicators are shown in Figure 4-1 and
are described in Table 4-1. Module locations for the front and rear panels are shown in Figure 4-2.
4.3
JUMPERS AND SWITCH SETTINGS
Most RFL 9785 circuit board modules and assemblies are equipped with programmable jumpers, DIP
switches, potentiometers and LED indicators which are used to prepare the system for use. Circuit
board modules and assemblies supplied as part of a system have their jumpers, DIP switches and
potentiometers set at the factory, according to the overall system configuration and the requirements of
the specific application. Under normal circumstances these settings should only have to be changed in
the field if a replacement module is being installed or a change in system configuration is desired. If
changes in jumper, DIP-switch or potentiometer settings have to be made to a particular module, refer
to the applicable section of Table 4-2.
If your RFL 9785 was equipped with any accessory equipment containing controls and indicators,
refer to Section 21 of this manual for further information.
