Using Terminal and Switchpack Modes3-2 7925-A2-GB20-30PRELIMINARY DRAFTJune 1997Connect the 9-pin end of the terminal cable into a COM port on your PC. Plug theother end into the modular jack on the front panel. If your PC requires a 25-pinconnector to the COM port, see Appendix B,Cable Pin Assignments, for thecorrect cable pinouts.Make sure the terminal parameters on your PC are set to: 9600 baud 8 bit no parity 1 stop bit no flow controlPress Return from your VT100-compatible terminal window to activate the mainmenu for the attached unit. The system runs diagnostics and status checks as itcomes up. After a few moments, the Main Menu screen will appear on yourVT100-compatible terminal. Menus are described in Chapters 4 and 5 for theG.703 and V.35 units, respectively.Switching Between Terminal and Switchpack ModesThe following procedure is used to change the operating mode of the unit toeither Terminal Mode (the default setting) or Switchpack Mode. Refer toChapter 4 (for G.703-compatible units) or Chapter 5 (for V.35-compatible units)for information on changing configuration options using either of these modes. ProcedureTo change the mode:1. Power down the unit and remove the enclosure cover, exposing the circuitboard. Use electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection when handling the circuitboard.2. See Appendix C,Switchpacks and Jumpers, for jumper locations on yourunit’s board.3. Locate the jumper header.— Use P11 for G.703-compatible units.— Use P8 for V.35-compatible units.4. Place the jumper in the correct position for the desired mode.— Switchpack Mode is enabled by placing the jumper on Pins 2 and 3.— Terminal Mode is enabled by placing the jumper on Pins 1 and 2.5.If you are enabling Switchpack Mode: You must set the switchpacks andjumpers to your desired configuration. Refer toSwitchpacks and Jumpers,Appendix C.6. Power up the board to reset and enable the new configuration.
