Equipment Description
•
A single RS-232 male, subminiature 9-pin control terminal interface.
• AC input connector with integral fuse.
The control terminal is a standard RS-232 interface DTE interface. No hardware handshake is required
for the interface. The diagnostic display comes up immediately. It operates at 9.6 Kbps with any ASCII
terminal.
Front Panel Indicators
The front panel of the system provides LED indicators for the alarm status of the transmit and the receive
T3 and the T2 interfaces (see Table 32-2 and Figure 32-2). Also on the front panel are indications for
power and for operating status (Fail/Active).
The Overflow LED indicates that the cell rate coming from the T3 interface exceeds the bandwidth of
the T2 facility and that the Interface Adapter buffer has overflowed.
