Mini-Carrier Remote
Description, Installation, and Maintenance
Note: Use of M2250 Attendant Consoles is not supported.
System CPU/Real Time Impact
MCR consumes the same real time as if remote IPE cards were used in an IPE
shelf at the host site. This means the real impact is calculated as if the cards
were located at the host site.
System Serial Data Access
Each LMI and RMI card allows a TTY-type terminal to be connected for
communicating with the MMI processor on the LMI or RMI card or the
system processor in the Meridian 1 through a standard SDI interface.
Mechanical Overview
The LMI and LMX packs have an information bus between the boards in a
mother/daughterboard configuration. The daughterboard is used to provide
access to the second card slot. The two circuit packs will mount with five
stand-offs, using strip connectors similar to those on the XPEC.
The RMI pack is a single width card with the same LEDs as the LMI.
Local-site cabling
The LMI uses standard IPE and two new cables, the LMI Multi-I/O cable
assembly (NT5D85), see Figure 5 on page 17, and the LMI/LMX Multi-I/O
cable assembly (NT5D86), see Figure 6 on page 18. Figure 8 on page 40
shows LMI cabling connections required at the local site.
