The DC-to-DC converter converts -48 Vdc battery input to +5 Vdc to operate
all active devices on the card.
5.11 Model 54550 Information Management Card
5.1101 This card provides microprocessor-controlled communications within the STS
54500 system and with the outside world. The 54522, 54523, 54591 and
54593 track and hold clocks communicate with the 54550 Information
Management Card, along with the 54541/54542 Synchronization Monitor
Card(s), to provide an interface to an operation support system (OSS). The
54550 polls the clocks and the SMC and retrieves operational status, collected
data, and alarm information. It also sets the modes of the clocks for
maintenance purposes and controls the data gathering modes on the SMC.
The clocks and SMC also send unsolicited information to the 54550 card.
5.1102 The 54550 Information Management Card is provisioned at the factory in the
following configurations:
a. 54550-0 supports the AA input architecture and provides a TL1 interface.
b. 54550-3 supports the AB input architecture and provides a TL1 interface.
c. 54550-4 supports the AB input architecture and provides a Menu interface.
NOTE:
The 54550 version must support the same input architecture, AA or AB, as the track and
hold cards. See Appendix A.
NOTE:
Refer to the CXR Larus TL1/ITL1 User Manual 80-800-400 for Transaction Language 1
instructions. Refer to the CXR Larus Menu User Manual 80-801-400 for Menu
instructions.
