The MG-SIP and MR-SIP are designed for ease of installation and configuration.
Once the device has been removed from the packing container, follow these
instructions:
Step
Procedure
1
Place the device on a flat surface with free-air flow where the LEDs can be
clearly observed with unrestricted access to the rear panel of the device.
2
Connect the DC power connection to the connection labeled PWR on the back
of the device and tighten the restraining nut to ensure secure operation.
3
Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable (patch cord) to the port labeled ETHERNET.
This cable should be connected to an Ethernet concentrator (hub) or switch.
4
Connect a terminal cable (supplied) to the port labeled TERM. This cable
should be connected to a PC’s serial port (DB-9) to initially configure the IS.
5
Connect the AC power cord between a standard wall outlet and the power
supply. The blue LED will illuminate.

IMPORTANT
The port labeled REDUN is currently not supported.
It is recommended that the RS-422/RS-530 cable NOT be
connected until after the device has been completely configured.
