Auxiliary Ports
The Centum Series includes two RS-232 “auxiliary” ports. The CRT
port allows the user to connect an external terminal (or PC with terminal
emulation). The connected terminal can perform all the functions of the
UP , DOWN , SELECT , and END buttons on the front panel. Usage of this
terminal is highly recommended by Verilink as the CRT display is not
constrained by the limitations of the LCD panel and, as a result, the user
is presented with a more comprehensive indication of available choices
and Centum Series results.
The NMS/Printer port allows the user to connect an external serial
printer to obtain a hard copy of configuration, statistics, alarm and real-
time events.
