Setting the backplane
switches
(unshadowed system)
To set the backplane switches in an unshadowed system, follow
these steps.
Module references for an unshadowed system
Interpret references to modules MM0 and MM1 as follows:
• The module that contains Meridian Mail node 1 is module
MM0. MM0 also contains nodes 2 and 3 in a multinode
system.
• The module that contains Meridian Mail node 4 (and 5) is
module MM1.
This Meridian Mail module numbering applies regardless of the
placement of modules within a column.
Step Action
1 To access the backplane, remove the I/O cover by turning each
of the four securing screws approximately one half turn.
2 Set backplane switches SW1 and SW3 to the ON position.
3 Set backplane switches SW2 and SW4 to the OFF position.
4 Set SW5 for each module according to the module number as
shown in the following table.
CAUTION
Risk of equipment damage
Do not use a lead pencil to change
the switch settings. The pencil
dust may damage and short the
switches. Use an appropriate
nonconducting tool.
