Configuration Worksheets

This appendix includes checklists, instructions, examples, and blank worksheets used for the initial installation and maintenance of the chassis. The checklists, worksheets, and log provide reference and history information that might be useful when troubleshooting the chassis in the future.

Following is a list of worksheets in this appendix:

Make copies of these worksheets before continuing, so that you can complete each of the forms and keep them in a safe place for future reference in the permanent site record.

Five-Slot Chassis Installation Checklist

Use the Five-Slot Chassis Installation Checklist to confirm that you have all the information needed to install and configure the chassis, and that all the components are installed and operating correctly. Each item in the Five-Slot Chassis Installation Checklist (Table A-1) should be verified by the person performing the installation and dated for the permanent site record.

Port Configuration Worksheet

Use the Port Configuration Worksheet (Table A-2) during the software configuration process. Each heading in the Port Configuration Worksheet should be completed by the person configuring the chassis and kept for the permanent site record. This section contains a sample chassis configuration and the corresponding port configuration forms.

Site Log

Use the Site Log (Table A-4) to keep a maintenance history of the chassis. A detailed description of actions performed and symptoms observed should be completed by the person performing the maintenance and kept as part of the permanent site record.

Date Action Performed or Symptom Observed Initial

Quick Installation Worksheet

The installation and configuration of the chassis can be separated into specific steps. If each step described in the Site Log (Table A-4) is completed, chassis installation should be successful. If the chassis fails to function properly in the first attempt, you can use the Site Log to systematically check that each step was performed correctly.

Copy the Site Log and initial each procedure as it is completed. Each task should be verified by the person performing the installation and dated for the permanent site records.
