Inserting the STIC card

Before inserting the AMC-IP board into the AlphaCom XE Server, a STIC (STentofon Identity Card) must be inserted in the the AMC-IP board. The STIC looks like the SIM card in mobile phones. There are two different versions of the STIC, one is for the XE1/XE7 servers, and one for the XE20/XE26 servers. Amongst other things, the STIC contains the MAC address of the AMC-IP board.

Install the STIC card by inserting it into the SIM Card socket of the AMC-IP board, as indicated in the picture to the right.
