SRM6200E-SLC User’s Guide
Quick Start
The SRM6200E-SLC comes pre-configured for your application (unless otherwise requested). In most cases, configuration
settings are not required.
Although each modem is tested before shipment, it is recommended that a bench test be done before the modem is
installed in its application.
In all applications, there is a master modem and one or more remotes. Some applications may also have one or more
repeaters. This “Quick Start” will assume that there is a repeater in the system. If there is not, ignore the parts that talk
about repeaters, as the remote modems should operate the same with or without repeaters.
The SRM6200E-SLC is available in three different power configurations:
•
SRM6200E-SLC is a 12VDC powered device that is designed to take 12VDC in on the barrel jack on the front
panel.
•
SRM6200E-SLC/BP is a 24VDC powered device that receives power directly from the backplane and does not
need a separate power supply. Be sure that your 1746 chassis has a large enough supply — Data-Linc Group
recommends the use of the P-4 power supply chassis (a wall transformer power supply has been included for
bench testing purposes).
•
SRM6200E-SLC/24V is a 24VDC powered device that is designed to take 24VDC in on the removable screw
terminal connector on the front panel (please note the polarity: positive side marked “+” on the top if you are
supplying your own power).
Locate the modem labeled “Master” and connect its power supply to an appropriate 120VAC power source, then connect it
to the modem. The “P” LED should come on and stay on
Note: on all modems, the “RF Link” LED will come on for the first few seconds after power up.
Next, locate the modem(s) labeled “Repeater” and connect to power. The LED “P” and “RF Link” should come on and stay
on. Now locate the modem(s) labeled “Remote” and connect to power. The LED “P” and “RF Link” should come on and stay
on. The modems are now ready to carry Ethernet data.
Connect the “Master” and “Remote” (or “Repeater/Remote” if your network has one) to the Ethernet equipment that has been
pretested for operation. The device has been designed with a crossover switch. The crossover function interchanges the
transmit and receive pairs removing the need for a crossover cable in certain situations.
The SRM6200E-SLC crossover switch has been factory set in the crossover position. If the system is connected and the
LAN link LED is not lit, the crossover switch (SW3- Diagram 3, pg. 24) may need to be moved to the straight through
position.
