Installation guide

3-4 Software installation
Meridian Mail Card Option Release 9.0
1 Run the System Installation and Modification Utility from the Meridian
Mail software tape. (Refer to Chapter 2.)
2 From the System Installation and Modification Menu, choose
“1 Install an MM9 system”.
3 Respond to the prompts as they appear. You should be prepared to sup-
ply the following values for the system:
— The keycode from the system’s label.
— The customer’s name.
This is the name that appears on Meridian Mail screens and re-
ports.
— The languages to install on the system.
— The country in which the system will be operating.
— The DSP parameters for the system.
These parameters are determined by the country you choose for
the system. You should not have to change the default values.
— The desired assignment of hardware locations.
— The DNs for the users on this system.
— The data port locations.
Card option systems can have up to six data ports: the first two are
reserved for the system administration terminal and the link to the
Meridian 1 switch, the remaining four are the four ports available on
the RSM card, if one is installed. The following are the recommend-
ed settings for these ports:
The port locations you define here must match the connections you
make to the RSM Breakout Assembly. The wiring diagrams for hos-
pitality systems (Figure 8-1 on page 8-3) and networked systems
(Figure 9-1 on page 9-2) are based on these recommended values.
If you customize the port locations, ensure that you change the wir-
ing accordingly.
