Package Contents
7 Make connections between the router and the router control system. If reconfiguring, skip this
step if all necessary router control system connections are still adequate. See Making Router
Control System Connections on page 59.
8 Make permanent or temporary diagnostic connections. Diagnostic connections enable the
router and UniConfig to communicate. This is important when initially configuring the router
and any time the router is reconfigured. See
Making Diagnostic Connections on page 62.
9 Connect the alarm connection on the router to an external indicator. If reconfiguring, skip this
step if alarm connections are still adequate. See Making Alarm Connections on page 64.
10 Install UniConfig. If reconfiguring, UniConfig does not need to be reinstalled. See the UniCon-
fig User’s Guide.
