Introduction
This chapter provides instructions for accessing the terminal interface control functions in a UAS
7000 system to perform local management. You access the terminal interface through a
SpectraComm Manager (SCM) card installed in the shelf that houses the NIU and DIU cards that
compose the UAS 7000 system. One SCM supports interface functions for up to 15 units in a
single shelf or up to 31 units in a pair of shelves connected by daisy chain cables.
The SCM card supports two types of connection for terminal interface functions:
•
connection of a VT100-compatible terminal via the Craft port on the SCM front panel
•
Telnet connection via the SCM LAN port located on the back panel of the shelf
A Craft port connection can be made using any standard VT-100 or ANSI terminal. A LAN port
connection requires a personal computer (PC) that runs the Telnet protocol and emulates a
VT100-type terminal. Either type of equipment must be equipped with an EIA/TIA-232-E
communication interface.
For either type of equipment, terminal communications parameters must be set as follows:
1.
data rate = 9600 bps
2.
character format = 1 start bit
8 data bits
no parity
1 stop bit
Initiating a Terminal Interface Session
The first portion of a terminal interface session varies depending on whether you’re using a
VT100-compatible terminal connected directly to the SCM front panel or a computer with a
Telnet connection to the SCM LAN port.
