Computer Requirements
The IntraGuide software is designed to operate as an application under Windows
95, Windows 98, or Windows NT.
A Pentium 100MHz or better is required with 32 MB RAM and one available

distortion and image flashing.

Connections
Communications from your computer to the Intraplex equipment is accomplished
via an RS-232 using one of the COM ports on your computer.
The remote port is an RJ-11 jack on the MA-215, MA-216 or MA-217 module
adapters. Pin connections for the module adapters are shown in Table 3-2.
Connection to a PC can be established using an ordinary straight-through wired
cable (a null modem cable or adapter is not necessary). However, when
connecting the remote port to a modem for use as a dial-in connection to the
equipment, use a null modem cable, which will provide a standard RS-232 DCE
to DCE connection.
There is an adapter available for connecting the module adapter to a 9-pin serial
port of a computer. Order part number 9557-2129, CM-10 Term Adapter
DB-9/RJ11.
