Management via the CM-2 Module

The information presented in this chapter includes:

•CM-2 functions

•Description of supervision terminal hardware requirements, and of methods for connecting a supervision terminal or network management station to LRS-24

•Supervision terminal commands

•Supervision terminal operating instructions.

The instructions appearing in this chapter assume that the supervision terminal operator is familiar with the configuration parameters of the modules installed in LRS-24.

4.1 Introduction

This chapter describes how to use a supervision terminal to manage an LRS-24 enclosure that contains a CM-2 control logic module.

The CM-2 module also enables management of the LRS-24 system by means of a RADview network management station, or other SNMP-based network management station. For information regarding the use of the RADview network management station, refer to the RADview User's Reference Manual.

CM-2 Module Capabilities

The CM-2 module includes an internal SNMP agent, and therefore it requires preliminary configuration. The preliminary configuration of LRS-24 must always be performed using a standard ASCII terminal connected to the CM-2 front panel supervisory port, designated MANAGEMENT RS-232. You can use terminals of the following types: VT-52, VT-100, TV-920, FREEDOM-100, FREEDOM-110, FREEDOM-220, or other terminals that are fully compatible with one of these terminals.
