2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Model 1110RC fiber optic rack card modem
is the
rack mountable counterpart to Patton’s Model 1110 self-powered, fiber
optic modem. Communicating full or half duplex over dual optical
fibers, the Model 1110RC supports data rates to 19.2 Kbps and
distances to 2 miles.
Like all fiber optic modems, the Model 1110RC is inherently
immune to RFI/EMI noise, ground loops and transient surges. The
carrier may be switch selected as either “Continuously On” or
“Controlled by RTS”. Four pairs of bi-level LED indicators monitor TD,
RD, RTS and CD. A single LED monitors power.
The Model 1110RC is designed to mount in Patton’s 2U high 19”
rack chassis. This 16-card chassis has a switchable 120/240 volt
power supply and mounts cards in a mid-plane architecture: The front
“brains” half-card can be plugged into different rear “interface” cards.
The Model 1110RC is available with a choice of two interface cards:
one with SMA connectors, and one with ST connectors. Both cards are
equipped with an HD-26 female connector for the RS-232 interface.

3.0 CONFIGURATION
This setting describes the location and orientation of the Model
1110RC’s configuration jumpers. There are two sets of jumpers to set:
those on the front “brains” card and those on the rear “interface” card.
3.1 FRONT CARD SETTINGS
The jumpers on the Model 1110RC “brains” card set RTS/CTS
delay and carrier control. Figure 1 (below) shows their location on the
PC board.
JP1 and JP2: RTS/CTS Delay
The combined settings for jumpers JP1 and JP2 determine the
amount of delay between the time the Model 1110RC “sees” RTS and
when it sends CTS.

JP3: Carrier Detect
The settings for jumper JP3 determines whether carrier detect is
enabled or disabled. Carrier detect feature responds to RTS; if RTS is
on, the Model 1110RC will have a carrier.
