1.1 GENERAL FUNCTIONS Signal regeneration

The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX processes the signal shape and amplitude of the data received.

1.2SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS OF THE TP INTERFACE

Link control

The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX monitors the connected TP line segments for short-circuit or interrupt using idle signals during frame pauses in accordance with IEEE standard 802.3 100BASE-TX. The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX does not transmit any data in a TP segment from which it does not receive an idle signal.

Note: A non-occupied interface is assessed as a line interrupt. The TP line to terminal equipment which is switched off is likewise assessed as a line interrupt as the de-energised transceiver cannot transmit idle signals.

1.3SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS OF THE F/O INTERFACE

Link control

The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX monitors the connected F/O lines for interrupts using idle signals during frame pauses in accordance with IEEE standard 802.3 100BASE-FX. The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX transmits no data to an F/O line from which it is receiving no idle signal.

Low Light Detection: If the optical input power decreases below the low light threshold the transmit and receive path will be disabled for data and the idle signal will be transmitted.

1.4DISPLAY ELEMENTS

Equipment status

The LEDs provide information about the status which affects the function of the entire Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX.

P1 - Power 1 (green LED)

- lit: - supply voltage 1 present

-not lit: - supply voltage 1 not present,

-hardware fault in Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX

P2 - Power 2 (green LED)

- lit: - supply voltage 2 present

-not lit: - supply voltage 2 not present,

-hardware fault in Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX

FAULT - Fault (red LED)

- lit: - the indicator contact indicates error

Port status

These groups of LEDs display port-related information.

DA STAT 1 - Data and Link status TP-Port (Port 1) (green/yellow LED)

- lit yellow: Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX receives data on the TP interface

Depending on the network load the illumination of the LED can vary between flickering and continuous illumination.

-lit green: Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX receiving idle signals from the TP segment,

- the attached TP segment works

properly

- not lit: Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX not receiving idle signals from TP segment,

-the assigned TP port is not attached,

-the attached device is switched off,

-the TP line is interrupted or short- circuited,

-Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX hardware error.

DA STAT 2 - Data and link status of F/O port (Port 2) (green/yellow LED)

-lit yellow: Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX receiving data from F/O segment

Depending on the network load the illumination of the LED can vary between flickering and continuous illumination.

-lit green: Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX receiving idle signals from the F/O segment,

-the attached F/O segment works properly

- not lit:	Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX not
	receiving idle signals from F/O
	segment,
	- the assigned F/O port is not
	attached,
	- the attached device is switched off,
	- Low Light Detection
	- the receive F/O line is interrupted,
	- Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX not
	receiving data at the interface,
	- Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX
	hardware error.

Data transmission

The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX supports half duplex (HDX) and full duplex (FDX) connections. Changing the configuration is not necessary.

1.5CONTROLS 2-pin DIP switch

Using the 2-pin DIP switch on the Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX front panel

- the message about the link status can be suppressed by the indicator contact on a port- by-port basis. Using switch LA1, the message about the link status of the TP port (port 1)is suppressed, using switch LA2, the message about the link status of the F/O port (port 2) is suppressed. State of delivery: switch position 1 (ON), i.e. message not suppressed, the indicator contact passes the faulty link status.

Off	On			Suppress message

1.6 INTERFACES TP connection

One 8 pole RJ45 socket enables an independent TP segment to be connected. The housing of the socket is electrically connected to the front panel.

- Pin configuration of the RJ45 socket:

- TD+: Pin 3,	TD-: Pin 6
- RD+: Pin 1,	RD-: Pin 2

- remaining pins: not configured.

F/O connection

One optical port conform to 100BASE-FX (SC socket) enables terminal devices or optical network components to be connected.

5-pin terminal block

The supply voltage and the indicator contact are connected via a 5-pin terminal block with screw locking mechanism.

Warning

The Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX equipment is designed for operation with SELV. Only safe extra-low voltages to IEC950/EN60950/VDE0805 may therefore be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the indicator

-Voltage supply: The voltage supply can be connected to be redundant. Both inputs are decoupled. There is no load distribution. With redundant supply, the power pack supplies the Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX alone with the higher output voltage. The supply voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.

-Indicator contact: Contact interrupt indicates the following by means of a volt-free indicator contact (relay contact, closed circuit):

-the failure of at least one of the two supply voltages.

-a permanent fault in the transceiver (internal 5 V DC voltage, supply voltage 1 or 2 not within the permissible range).

-the faulty link status of the TP port (port 1), if the setting of DIP switch LA1 is “ON”.

-the faulty link status of the F/O port (port 2), if the setting of DIP switch LA2 is “ON”.

The indication of the link state might be masked on a port-by-port basis using the DIP switches LA1 and LA2.

The indicator contact is closed,

-if the power supply is OK.

-if the setting of DIP switch LA1 is “ON” and the link status of port 1 is OK (or if the setting of DIP switch LA1 is “OFF”).

-if the setting of DIP switch LA2 is “ON” and the link status of port 2 is OK (or if the setting of DIP switch LA2 is “OFF”).

Note: In the case of the voltage supply being routed without redundancy, the Transceiver 100 Mbps TX/FX indicates the failure of a supply voltage. You can prevent this message by feeding in the supply voltage through both inputs.
