4.2 Hardware Requirements

Terminal

Characteristics

Any standard ASCII terminal (“dumb” terminal or personal computer

emulating an ASCII terminal) equipped with a V.24/RS-232 communication

interface can be used to control HCD-E1 operation. Make sure to initialize

HCD-E1 for correct terminal operation as explained in Section 4-3,

otherwise some of the commands may not work properly.

The software necessary to run the HCD-E1 control program is contained in

the HCD-E1 system.

Telnet (IP) Host

Characteristics

Typically, the Telnet host is a PC with the appropriate suite of TCP/IP

protocols, or a UNIX station.

The Telnet host can be directly connected to the managed HCD-E1 unit, or

located at any site from which IP communication be established to the

managed HCD-E1.

Control Port

Interface

Characteristics

HCD-E1 has a V.24/RS-232 asynchronous DCE port, designated CONTROL

DCE and terminated in a 9-pin D-type female connector. The control port

continuously monitors the incoming data stream and will immediately

respond to any input string received through this port; moreover, when

configured to support SLIP, messages in each of the supported protocols are

automatically identified and processed.

The supervision terminal can be connected either directly to the HCD-E1

control port (the CONTROL DCE connector), or through a modem or any

other type of full-duplex data link. The HCD-E1 control port interface type

must be set in accordance with the connection method (see Section 3-6):

DCE Intended for direct connection to terminals. Since terminals

usually have DTE interfaces, in this case the connection to the

port is made by means of a straight-through cable.

DTE Intended for connection through a modem or data link. In this

case, you need a cross cable (also called null modem cable) to

connect to the CONTROL DCE connector.

The HCD-E1 control port can be configured to communicate at rates of 300,

1200, 2400, 4800, or 9600 bps. The word format consists of one stop bit

and 7 or 8 data bits. Parity can be odd, even or disabled.

HCD-E1 supports two types of modems:

• Dial-up Hayes compatible modems. HCD-E1 has call-in capability, that

is, it can accept external calls.

• Multidrop modems, such as the RAD SRM-8 miniature multidrop

modem.
