2 Connect to the ‘CTRL 1’ connection in the ‘PRI CTRL’ section using a DE9 connector and
serial cable.
3 Connect the other end of the serial cable to the (primary) router control system using a DE9
connector.
The following lists the pin wiring for the DE9 connector:
4 If a secondary control card (optional for redundancy) is installed, connect to the ‘CTRL 1’ con-
nection in the ‘SEC CTRL’ section as described in Step 2 and Step 3.
5 If an alternate router control system (e.g., for redundancy or dual control) is being used, make
connections as follows:
a Connect to the ‘CTRL 2’ connection in the ‘PRI CTRL’ section using a DE9 connector and
serial cable.
b Connect the other end of the serial cable to the
secondary
router control system using a DE9
connector, wiring the connector as described in Step 3.
c Connect to the ‘CTRL 2’ connection in the ‘SEC CTRL’ section using a DE9 connector and
