Using Terminal and Switchpack

Modes

Choosing an Interface Mode

You can make configuration changes either through an asynchronous terminal (Terminal Mode) or by manually changing switches and jumpers on the board (Switchpack Mode). Terminal Mode is the default setting.

In Terminal Mode:

HYou change configuration parameters by selecting menu options that appear on a VT100-compatible terminal attached to the front panel of the termination unit.

HThe standalone unit is preconfigured at the factory for CP (customer premises) operation.

In Switchpack Mode:

HYou change configuration parameters by moving switchpacks and jumpers on the board.

HThe standalone unit is not preconfigured. You must ensure that the switchpacks and jumpers are set as desired.

HYou can still display information about the unit from the terminal and run loopback tests.

HAny changes you make in Terminal Mode are lost when you change to Switchpack Mode.

Connecting to a System Terminal

An optional system maintenance terminal is attached to your Model 7924 standalone termination unit through the modular jack on the front panel. Terminals can be attached to both endpoints (CO and CP).

The system terminal must be a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC running emulation software.
