Installation

The short haul modems are shipped in pairs. One modem is attached to the master controller on 
the access control network. The other is attached to the host computer's COM port.

NOTE: Each short haul modem has a small switch allowing the modem to be set for use with 
either Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) or Data Communication Equipment (DCE) devices. 
Please ensure that each modem's switch is set correctly.

The switch is used to set the modem to match the type of device it is connected to.

Insert a thin-blade screwdriver into the switch slot and verify the switch is turned completely 
counter-clockwise for a DTE application or completely clockwise for a DCE application.  
Applying too much pressure while turning the switch may damage the modem.

NOTE: When a KDP-252 cable is used, make sure the short haul modem switch is set for a DCE 
application.
