ASMi-52 Ver. 2.5 Overview 5-1
Chapter 5 Configuring a Typical Application

5.1 Overview

This chapter provides detailed instructions for setting up two ASMi-52 modems in
a typical application.
ASMi-52 configuration is performed via a menu-driven embedded software using a
standard ASCII terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation application
connected to the rear panel CONTROL port. Alternatively, ASMi-52 can be
managed from a Telnet host connected to the 10/100BaseT port on the rear panel.
Read Chapter 4 to familiarize yourself with how to operate a terminal.

Guidelines for Configuring ASMi-52 Units

Each ASMi-52 unit must be configured individually. This typical application has the
following configuration steps:
1. Setting the system: Setting the clock mode and the device Host IP address
2. Setting the line interface: Setting the Wire mode (2W or 4W)
3. Setting the E1 port: Setting the framing mode.
