INITIAL SYSTEM CHECKS This section describes procedures for initially checking out your hardware and any required software. It is assumed at this point that your hardware and data communications software have been properly installed and are ready for use.

Note: Data communications software is required only if you are using a PC as your terminal device. A dedicated data terminal does not need data communications software.

Power-Up Self-Test

When power is first applied to the 7400B Data Module, the unit

 

performs a self-test to determine that it is in working order. The

 

progression of the self-test is indicated by the sequential, left-to-right

 

lighting of the 10 front-panel LEDs.

 

If the self-test finds no problems, the LEDs labeled POWER/TEST and

 

TR will remain lit and all other LED lamps will go out.

 

Note: The operation of the LEDs described here assumes that the

 

factory-default options are still in effect. Once certain

 

options have been changed, the operation of the LEDs may

 

differ from this description.

 

Your 7400B Data Module is now installed and ready for data

 

communications operation.

IF YOU ARE USING A PC

 

Review the documentation for your PC and data communications

 

software. Be sure that you understand both well enough to get the

 

software running and place your PC in terminal mode.

 

Since there is such a diversity of functionality among the many

 

packages available, refer to the user’s manual of the software package

 

for specific details of its use. Appendix C, “Application Notes”

 

provides guidelines for using a few of the more popular packages with

 

the 7400B Data Module.

IF YOU ARE USING A

 

To determine whether your terminal is communicating with the 7400B

DEDICATED TERMINAL

Data Module, type the following command line:

 

AT [ Enter ]

 

Note: The two characters of the “AT” command prefix must be

 

typed as either both uppercase or both lowercase. That is,

 

you can type either at or AT, but At or aT will not

 

work.

 

If everything is operating properly, the command should appear on the

 

screen as you type it, and the 7400B Data Module should respond with

 

OK. Refer to Chapter 5,“Troubleshooting,” for help if you are not

 

getting these results.
