To connect and configure a maintenance terminal:

1Connect a serial cable from the maintenance terminal 9-pin COM port to the line or desktop unit console port connector (Figure 11). Ensure the Data Terminal Ready (DTR) signal from the terminal is connected as the HDSL card will not communicate without it. Data Terminal Ready (DTR) may also be asserted by connecting the DSR output signal (pin 6) to the DTR input (pin 4).

•VT100 Emulation or ANSI (if VT100 is not available)

•Clear the modem initialization string, if supported by the terminal

•Bits per second: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), or 19200 bps (recommended)

•Data bits: 8

•Parity: None

•Stop bits: 1

If using a PC and Microsoft Windows terminal emulation program, deselect Show Scroll Bars and Use Function, Arrow, and Ctrl Keys from the Settings Terminal Preferences menu in Windows 3.1 or from the Properties menu in Windows 95.

MODEM CONNECTION

For remote access to the line unit, an auto-answer modem can be connected to the console port. Use a null modem cable to connect the WorldDSL line unit and the modem.
