3Com 530, 510 Connecting a Management Terminal, Location of OfficeConnect Fax and Print Servers

1-18 CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED

The VOICE port is terminated with an RJ-11 socket. If your telephone equipment uses a different connector, you will need to obtain a suitable convertor to connect to the VOICE port. A British Telecom to RJ11 convertor is supplied with UK models fitted with a Voice port.

A dial tone is not provided to the handset if the ISDN line is not operational or has been disconnected.

Connecting a Management Terminal

Connect the Serial Manager cable to the Serial Manager port (marked Serial). Connect the other end to the serial COM port on your PC workstation.

When you have connected a management terminal, you can configure the Office Connect Remote to communicate with the remote site(s). See “Quick Configuration” overleaf.

Location of OfficeConnect Fax and Print Servers

If you are connecting the OfficeConnect Fax Server or Print Server to the OfficeConnect Remote, you must configure these units to operate with local servers only. If you do not do this, unnecessary ISDN calls are made, caused by the fax or print server polling the fax

or print queue on remote servers at regular intervals (between once every 30 seconds to once a minute).
