3.0 CONFIGURATION

Note If you have a Model 460-TBP, it does not require configuration; refer to section 4.0, “Installation” on page 8.

The following section describes configuring the Model 460. The Model 460 Series are preset to work in most applications without additional configuration. The only parameter that is user-configurable is whether there is a shield con- nection between the 75-ohm coax and 120-ohm interfaces. Figure 1 on page 5 shows how the shield is connected between the modular jack and dual BNCs. Removing the jumper breaks the shield connection.

The Model 460 is most often used to bi-directionally convert CPE twisted-pair terminations to CPE coaxial terminations.

The factory setting leaves jumpers JP1 and JP2 (see Figure 2 above and Figure 3 on page 7) in place, thus passing both shield connections through. To change one or both of the shield connections, do the following:

1.Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the slot on the side of the Model 460 case and twist. The case will pop open, exposing the printed cir- cuit board.
