PCMCIA interface

The NTDK97 MSC card has a 2-slot PCMCIA interface socket located on its faceplate. You can insert a Software Delivery card into the socket. Use the Software Delivery card for software upgrades on an existing Option 11C Mini system. You can also use the PCMCIA socket for creating an external backup copy of the customer database.

SDI ports

The NTDK97 MSC card contains three SDI ports used to connect on-site terminals or remote terminals through a modem. See Table 27 for the default settings on the ports.
