4.0 CONFIGURATION
The Model IM2RC/I-100B module plugs into Patton’s 3088RC and 2701RC modems to provide Ethernet LAN extension. The IM2RC/I- 100B has no switches or jumpers and does not need to be configured. However, factors such as the type of medium, throughput across the link and clocking mode must be determined by the settings of the baseband modems. Please refer to your baseband modem (i.e. 3088RC and 2701RC) to make the following settings.
1.Bit Rate: The DTE rate setting of your base unit corresponds to the throughput of your IM2RC/I-100B bridge module. Use higher speeds to allow maximum throughput to your extended LAN. Use lower speeds to limit the access of your extended LAN.
Note The IM2RC/I-100B only supports synchronous speeds.
2.Clocking Mode: Set the clocking modes on the base units so that one unit is configured for Internal clocking mode and the other unit is set for Receive Recover clocking mode.
BASE UNIT CLOCK MODES
Unit “A” | Unit “B” |
Internal Clock Setting | Receive/Recover Clock Setting |
| |
Note Unit “A” and Unit “B” are arbitrarily chosen. It does not mat- ter which unit is “A”, and which is “B”.
3.When using the IM2RC/I-100B, DISABLE, the “Enable Loop from DTE” Switch on the front function card (3088RC or 2701RC).
4.All other base unit settings depend upon your application and on the application medium (twisted pair or coaxial cable).
