Installation Installation involves three basic steps: four-wireconnections; EIA-232 connection; switch settings. 3.1 Four-Wire Connections Figure 1 shows the location of the terminal block on thecircuit board. Refer to Figure 2 to make the properconnections between two SHM-B units. ...

15 SHM-B ASYNC Because DTR, DSR, RTS, and CTS are tied togetherinternally, dropping any one of these four signals to anegative state will also drop DCD on the remote side to anegative state. DCD will also go LOW if the remoteSHM-B is powered down, or if the twisted-pair wire isbroken. X-ON/X-OFF M O...

18 SHM-B ASYNC 5. Rackmount Installation The SHM-B Async Card is a rack mount unit (ME805-C)that installs in a standard 19-inch panel rack. (You canuse the SHM-B Rack [ME810], which can hold up to 16cards.) The SHM-B Async Card will occupy 5.25 inchesof vertical rack space, and is 9 inches deep. To ...
