Required if keyboard is to be modified CABLE ORDERS: IBM shielded twisted-pair cable or coaxial cable is required for product attachment. The customer is responsible for installation and maintenance of the cable and associated accessories. Twisted-Pair Cable - For proper identification, installation and application of cable and associated accessories, refer to IBM Cabling System - Planning and Installation Guide (GA27-3361). For pricing and ordering information, refer to the appropriate IBM DIRECT catalog. Coaxial Cable - For proper identification, installation and application of cable and associated accessories, refer to IBM 3270 Installation Manual - Physical Planning (GA27-2787). PLANNING INFORMATION Planning is the responsibility of the customer. The customer should have on hand, or should order the IBM 3191 Display Station Description (GA18-2544) for site planning and preparation work. CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES: The customer is responsible for: o Adequate site, system and other vendor preparation. o Receipt at customer's receiving dock, unpacking, and placement of the unit. o Physical setup, connection of cables in customer access area, switch settings, and checkout. o During initial set-up, installing Repair Identification Tags (RID) on each element (logic, video, and keyboard) of the 3191. The RID tag is used to identify each element (logic, video, and keyboard) of all element exchange products and is used by IBM for service entitlement. Only the Type and Serial Number of the product is stored in IBM's entitlement system. Therefore, the RID tags are attached to the logic element when it is shipped from the factory. The RID tags must be removed from this element and installed on each element during initial setup. Detail information on where to install the RID tags is contained in the Display Station Setup Instruction Manual shipped with each 3191. Please refer to the Setup Manual for the exact location of the RID tags. o Contacting IBM service for attachment of the 3191 communications cable to an on-site serviced IBM control unit where customer access area is not provided. o Determination of the required number of spares. The number of spare units is dependent upon the number of the 3191 units the customer has installed, the application requirements, physical locations and layout. Determination of the required number of spares is a customer responsibility. The customer should be advised to test spares for correct operation before putting them on the shelf. Spares can be ordered as a complete machine or as individual elements. o Performing Customer Problem Analysis and Resolution (CPAR) o Under Customer On-site Exchange service, returning a failing element for repairs. Call the Service/Exchange Communication Center (S/ECC) on a toll-free number for service by calling 800-428-2569. o Customer is responsible for all keyboard modifications. Customers must remove customer-owned keycaps prior to returning a keyboard for exchange or repair service and return the standard layout keyboard to IBM. A standard layout keyboard will be returned to the customer. o Returning security keys to IBM if any exchange service of the Logic Element is required. (If the keys are not returned to IBM, the customer will be charged for the replacement of the security keys and locks on a time and material basis). o Ordering the IBM 3191 Display Station Description Manual (GA18-2457) for site planning and preparation work since it is not shipped with each machine. INSTALLABILITY: The 3191 is a Customer Set-Up (CSU) machine. An IBM 3191 Display Station Setup Instructions manual is included with each machine. PROBLEM DETERMINATION: The Operator Reference and Problem Solving Guide contains self-test and diagnostic procedures which assist the customer in isolating a defective machine element. The failing element can then be replaced by calling the Service/Exchange Communication Center. PACKAGING: The 3191 is shipped in a single shipping carton with the individual elements packaged in separate cartons. The Set-up Instructions (GA18-2458), User's Guide (GA18-2454), and Problem Solving Guide (GA18-2561 and GA18-2456) are included in this packaging.
