1.16.4 TL1 Craft Interface Installation

You can use the craft pins on the ONS 15454 backplane or the EIA/TIA-232 port on the TCC2/TCC2P
card faceplate to create a VT100 emulation window to serve as a TL1 craft interface to the ONS 15454.
Use a straight-through cable to connect to the EIA/TIA-232 port. Table 1-31 shows the pin assignments
for the CRAFT pin field.
Note You cannot use the craft backplane pins and the EIA/TIA-232 port on the TCC2/TCC2P card
simultaneously.
Note To use the serial port craft interface wire-wrap pins on the backplane, the DTR signal line on the
backplane port wire-wrap pin must be connected and active.
1.17 Cards and Slots
ONS 15454 cards have electrical plugs at the back that plug into electrical connectors on the shelf-
assembly backplane. When the ejectors are fully clo sed, the card plugs into the assembly backplane.
Figure 1-44 shows card installation.
