SDI and COM1 ports
Use Procedure 20 to connect COM1 ports to a switch box and a terminal (see Figure 70 on page 176 and Figure 71 on page 178).
Procedure 20
Connecting a switch box and terminal to the SDI and COM1 ports
1Set the terminal to 9600 baud, 7 data, space parity, one stop bit, full duplex, XON.
2Connect an NT8D95 cable to the terminal and to the switch box.
3Connect NT8D95 cables to a matching connector on the switch box. When using an A0377992 ABCDE box, connect:
—CPU 0 to connector A.
—CPU 1 to connector B.
—The SDI port to connector D (connector C is common).
4Connect NT8D95 cables from the switch box to J25 on the I/O panel in the rear of each cPCI Core/Network Module.
5Connect an NT8D95 cable from the switch box to the I/O panel slot for the SDI card.
6To communicate with the system in general, set the switch box to the SDI port. To communicate directly with a COM1 port, switch the cable as needed.
