CONFIGURATION
4.1 Overview
To avoid damage to either the modem pair or the CRS-180 switch, it is important that
you follow this sequence of configuration:
• First, configure both modems for 1:1 redundant operation as directed in this chapter. This
chapter organizes the modem-specific sections and any specific interface configuration
examples as follows:
For Modem... See Chapter Sect.
CDM-625/A 4.2
CDM-760 or CDM-750 4.3
CDM-570/A 4.4
CDM-710G, CDM-710, or CDM-700 4.5
• Second, once you properly configure both modems for 1:1 redundant operation, set the
DIP switches on the CRS-180 to the correct modem selection. See Sect. 4.6 CRS-180 Switch
DIP Settings for details.
• Third, once you properly configure both modems and the DIP switches, connect the
control and IF cables between the powered OFF modems and switch. See Chapter 5.
