3.2 CONFIGURATION STRAPS

In addition to the configuration switches described above, the Model 1075 is also equipped with two internal straps that set the DTE/DCE Configuration and the DB-15 Shield. In order to configure these straps, you must open the Model 1075 case.

NOTE: Before opening the case, determine whether the default settings are correct for your application (see Sections 3.2.3 and 3.2.4)

3.2.1 Opening the Case

To open the Model 1075 insert a flat head screw driver into an open slot on either side of the case, as in Figure 3. Twist the screw driver head slightly and the top half of the case will separate from the lower half, as in Figure 4, below.

To close the case, fit the 2 halves together snugly and snap them back in place.

3.2.2 Location of the Internal Straps

3.2.3 Setting the DCE/DTE Strap

The X.21 interface on the Model 1075 is DCE/DTE switchable. The default setting is DCE, based upon how the Model 1075 sees its own orientation. When configured this way, the Model 1075 will want to connect to an X.21 DTE device. Re-positioning the DCE/DTE strap will enable the Model 1075 to connect to an X.21 DCE device (See Figure 6, below).

Default Setting = “DCE”

The X.21 DCE/DTE strap is located near the DB-15 connector on the PC board. The arrows on the top of the strap indicate the configuration of the Model 1075. For example, if the DCE arrows are pointing toward the DB-15 Connector, the Model 1075 is configured as a “DCE” and must connect to an X.21 DTE device.

To change the DCE/DTE orientation of the Model 1075 X.21 interface, simply remove the strap and rotate it 180o so the appropriate arrows are pointing toward the DB-15 Connector.
