4.0 INSTALLATION
The Model 2010 is designed to be used in pairs, with one unit installed
between an asynchronous DTE and a synchronous DCE on either end of a
synchronous communication link. Figure 4 (below) illustrates a typical
Model 2010 installation.
Figure 4. Typical Model 2010 application
4.1 CONNECTING THE ASYNCHRONOUS PORT
The asynchronous port of the Model 2010 is a DB-25 female and is
configured as "DCE". Therefore, it wants to talk to a DTE device such as a
terminal or PC. The Model 2010 may be plugged directly into the DB-25
serial port of a DTE or connected via "straight through" cable.
4.2 CONNECTING THE SYNCHRONOUS PORT
The synchronous port of the Model 2010 is a DB-25 male and is
configured as "DTE." Therefore, it wants to talk to a DCE device such as a
modem or multiplexer. The Model 2010 may be plugged directly into the
DB-25 serial port of a DCE or connected via "straight through" cable.
