2.3 Installation and Setup

ASM-10/8 is a standalone device intended for tabletop or bench installation.
It is delivered completely assembled. No provisions are made for bolting the
ASM-10/8 to the tabletop. For installation of the unit in a 19" rack, refer to
Appendix B.

To complete the installation of ASM 10/8:

1. Determine the required configuration of the modem according to your

application, and set the internal jumpers and switches accordingly (see
Figure 2-1 and Table 2-1.

2. Connect the line (see Connecting the Line below).
3. Connect the DTE interface (see Connecting the DTE below).
4. Connect power to the unit (see Connecting the Power below).

Setting the
Internal Jumpers

This section provides information on the functions of the internal jumpers
and switches, to help you in the selection of the correct settings for
particular application, and gives you step-by-step instructions for
performing the internal settings. The default settings are also listed.

To set the ASM-10/8 internal jumpers:

1. Open the ASM-10/8 case.
2. Set the ASM-10/8 internal jumpers and switches, referring to Figure 2-1.
3. Reinstall the ASM-10/8 cover.

Warning

Access to the inside of the equipment is permitted only to the

authorized and qualified personnel.
To avoid accidental electric shock, always disconnect the interface

cables and the power cord before removing the unit from its casing.
Line voltages are present inside ASM-10/8 when it is connected to

power and/or the lines. Moreover, under certain fault conditions,

dangerous voltages may appear on the lines connected to the unit.
Any adjustment, maintenance and repair of the opened instrument

under voltage must be avoided as much as possible and, when

inevitable, should be carried out only by a skilled technician who is

aware of the hazard involved. Capacitors inside the unit may still be

charged even after the unit has been disconnected from its source of

power.

Caution

ASM-10/8 contains components sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
To prevent ESD damage, avoid touching the internal components, and
before moving jumpers, touch the ASM-10/8 frame.
