TPIM Installation

Page 3-6

3.1.7 Connecting the STHI to the Power Source

Plug one end of the power cord into the back panel of the STHI and

connect the other end into a grounded wall outlet. Verify that the PWR

LED is on, indicating that the STHI is receiving power.

3.2 TPIM Installation

TPIM use is an option, not a requirement, for STHI operation.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the TPIM.

Observe all precautions to prevent electrostatic discharges

when handling the TPIM. Avoid touching the components

or surface of the board. Hold only the edges of the board or

the metal front panel.

Install a TPIM as follows:

1. Remove the TPIM port coverplate from the STHI hub’s faceplate.

2. Carefully insert the TPIM into the TPIM port with its edges in the

guide tracks. The TPIM seats firmly, snug against the face of the STHI

when the connector pins on the back of the TPIM are fully inserted

into their pin slots.

3. Finger-tighten the mounting screw (upper right-hand corner of the

TPIM faceplate) to secure the TPIM in place.

3.3 Finishing the Installation

Before placing the network into service, test the installation thoroughly,

making sure that all stations can receive data and that the STHI and all

connected stations are indicating normal operation. Confirm that the

networking software is configured properly to match the installed

network. If problems emerge, proceed to Chapter 4, Troubleshooting.
