This section summarizes the procedures for installing and starting the DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600
System. Follow these procedures, in order, to install and start up the DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600.
Procedure 1: Plan the Installation
Read chapter 1 of the DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 System Installation and Configuration manual to
understand DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 System concepts. Plan your installation according to the
following criteria:
•DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 Stack
Station
•DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 Stack
Director
•Setup port device (PC or terminal)
•Setup port cable and (optionally) an adapter
•IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address
(for Stack Director)
If Then
The stack will be managed You need one Stack Director. The Stack Director
must be at the bottom of the stack.
The stack will be rack mounted You must use the mounting tray.
The stack will have more than one level Using the mounting tray is recommended.
The stack will use modular options Install modular options before powering up the
stack.

Procedure 2: Install the First Module of a DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 Stack
Note: Steps 2 through 5 apply only if the stack has more than one level. If the stack
has just one level (for example, a Stack Director and no Stack Stations), keep the dust
cap on.
Procedure 3: Install Any Additional Levels of the Stack
Step Action
1Align the holes on the underside of the Stack Director with the mounting holes on
the tray. Turn the Stack Director or Stack Station upside down and attach the
mounting tray to it using the supplied screws.
2Remove the dust cap from the vertical connector on the Stack Director.
3Insert the Stack Interconnect Card into the vertical connector. Align the notches in
the card with the corresponding key in the connector.
4Press down on the Stack Interconnect Card until it is fully seated.
5Insert and tighten wing nuts. Install alignment pylons if they are not already
installed.
6Attach a functional module to the Stack Director.
Step Action
1On the previously installed level, align the wings of the wing nuts within the wing
guide on the installed Stack Station.
2Remove the two wing nuts from the next Stack Station.
3If it is present, remove the mounting plug from the bottom of the next Stack Station
by turning it clockwise 1/4 turn.
4Seat the next Stack Station on the installed Stack Director or Stack Station while
aligning the pylons and wing nuts.
5Press down on the corner of the Stack Station until it snaps into place.
6Insert and finger tighten two wing nuts to the Stack Station. Align the wings on the
wing nuts within the wing guide on the Stack Station.
7Attach a functional module to the Stack Station.
8To continue adding levels to the stack, repeat steps 1 through 7.
Note: The top Stack Station should have the dust cap on its vertical connector.

Procedure 4: Cable the Stack Director and Stack Station
Procedure 5: Connect Power
Step Action
1Select the appropriate cable, and if necessary, an adapter to connect a setup port
device (terminal or PC) to the setup port. Normally, this is a BN24H-xx cable and
an H8571-J or H8585-A adapter. Connect the setup port device to the setup port on
the Stack Director.
2Configure the setup port device (terminal or PC) as follows: 9600 baud, 8 bits, no
parity, 1 stop bit.
3If youare using out-of-bandmanagement, connect a modem or access service tothe
Stack Director OBM port using a 9-pin D-sub connector.
4To extend the internal 10base2 LAN, connect to the Stack Director 10Base2 port
using a 10Base2 cable with a BNC connector. If you do not use this port, then you
MUST attach a 50-ohm terminator (H8225).
5If you are redirecting the Management MAC, connect to the Stack Director
Management Access Port using a straight-through cable with an 8-pin MJ port
connector.
Note: You cannot simultaneously use the 10Base2 and the Management Access
ports for in-band management. The Management Access Port has precedence for
SNMP management traffic; however the 10Base2 data network will still be active.
Step Action
1Connect the supplied AC line cord to the IEC power connector on each Stack
Station. Then, connect each AC line cord into an AC outlet or power strip.
WARNING: Always make sure this unit is adequately grounded. Do not connect
more than five Stack Stations into a single power strip unless the power strip is
protected by a GFCI device.
2Connect an AC line cord into the IEC power connector of the Stack Director (at the
bottom of the stack) and into an AC outlet or power strip.
3Make sure that the Power OK LEDs on all Stack Stations and the Stack Director are
on.
