Making Diagnostic Connections
The control system expansion connections are serial ports that use a standard CAT3 (or better)
straight-through Ethernet cable and one Miranda-supplied terminator (WC0084).
How to Make Control System Expansion Connections between Two Routers
1 Locate the Ethernet (RJ-45) expansion control connections at the rear of the router, as shown in
Figure 3-15. The connections are labeled ‘RTR Expansion’.
Figure 3-15. Ethernet Connections to Control System (Rear View)
2 On the primary router (the router directly connected to the control system), connect to the ‘RTR
Expansion’ connection in the ‘PRI CTRL’ section using the standard CAT3 (or better) straight-
through Ethernet cable and one Miranda-supplied termination (WC0084-00):
Figure 3-16. Ethernet Connections Between Two NV8288-Plus Routers (Rear View)
Connect the other end of the cable to the ‘RTR Expansion’ connection in the ‘PRI CTRL’ sec-
tion on the secondary router, with similar termination. Each end of the connection must be ter-
minated.
3 If a secondary control card (optional for redundancy) is installed, connect to the ‘RTR Expan-
sion’ connection in the ‘SEC CTRL’ connection, as described in steps 2 and 3. (See
Making Diagnostic Connections
The diagnostic connections enable the NV8288 and the NV8288-Plus to communicate with the
UniConfig application. UniConfig is installed on a PC, separate from the router, and is used to per-
