Synchronous Port Configuration
The WPIM-SY supports one physical serial interface on the CSX202 and the
CSX400. Through the WAN ConÞguration window you can view the physical
conÞguration of your synchronous port and change the In Speed, Out Speed, and
Port Type displayed for your synchronous connection. The WAN ConÞguration
window for the WPIM-SY is shown in
.
In this window you will see the following Þelds:
Line Status
Displays the status of the port. The status can be one of the following:
¥
Inactive Ñ
The connection through this port is not active.
¥
OK
Ñ The port is the active port and the connection is operational.
¥
In Alarm
Ñ The port is the active port, but the connection has experienced a
failure. When either the Cts (Clear to Send) or Dsr (Data Set Ready) signal is
Off and the signal is enabled, the port will enter the state of In Alarm.
The left side of this portion of the window is color-coded to indicate the line
status: Blue for Inactive; Green for OK; and Red for In Alarm.
Port 1
Displays the port type: Synchronous.
In Speed
Allows you to enter the speed of input communications of the synchronous port.
Out Speed
Allows you to enter the speed of output communications of the synchronous port.
Port Type
Indicates the type of connection used at the port. The available connections are
RS422
, RS232, V.35, or None. You should set the port type to match the
conÞguration of the connected equipment.
Cts Enable
This Þeld displays whether the Cts (Clear to Send) signal is enabled. If the Cts
signal is enabled (Yes), the device will use it to determine the status of the
connection. If the signal is disabled (No), it will be ignored.
