When this is complete press ‘Ctrl + L’ two or three times to refresh the screen and you should see the SVMi-8 StatusScreen. You are now ready to program the system.Remote ProgrammingConnecting to the SVMi-8 system via the modem allows a remote administrator to monitor and provide routineadministration without having to be on site.Connect an analog line to the modem line jack of the modem and connect the modem to the SVMi-8 serial port witha 90-pin female connector.The CableFor the cable between the SVMi-8 serial port and the modem, the pin configuration should be a straight-throughcable with TXD and RXD wires crossed. This would be pins 3 and 2 respectively on the 9-pin connector, or pins 2and 3 on the 25-pin connector.To make this cable, start with the standard cable that comes with your modem. This will be a straight through cable,because the cable design assumes that the SVMi-8 COM port uses pin 2 for RXD and pin 3 for TXD, when in factthey are reversed.To adjust for this, you must cross pins 2 and 3 in the modem cable. The easiest way to do this is use a null modemadapter on one end of the cable.Note that straight-through 9-pin to 25-pin cable does not mean pin 1 to pin 1, pin 4 to pin 4, pin 5 to pin 5, etc. Thepin assignments on a 9-pin connector are different than the pin assignments on a 25-pin connector.To avoid dedicated line charges, you can connect the modem to a single line port from the phone system and use theauto attendant to direct your call to the modem.Connecting Optional Equipment10
