3.3.1   REAR  CARD STRAP SETTINGS

Figure 5 shows the strap locations for the 1Q11 and the 1Q45 rear

cards.  These straps determine various grounding characteristics for
the RS-232 and twisted pair lines.  

Figure 6 provides a summary of strap functions for both of the rear

cards.  The next page describes each strap's function.

Line A Shield & Line B Shield (JB2 & JB4)

This strap pertains to the line interface.  In position 1&2, the strap

links RJ-11 pins 1 and 6 (RJ-45 pins 2 and 7) to frame ground and the
rear panel.  These pins can be used as connections for the twisted pair
cable shield.  In position 2&3, pins 1 and 6 (or 2 and 7) are
disconnected from frame ground.

3.2  SETTING THE CONFIGURATION STRAPS

The Model 222NRC contains two sets of configuration jumpers,

which allow you to set the function of both front panel “Carrier Detect”
LEDs and the CD signal exiting the rear interface card in the rack.
Since the Model 222NRC contains two converters, each unit can be
configured separately.  

Both “Carrier Detect” straps can be set to “Normal” or “Always on”.

When operating normally, the “CD” LED will blink to indicate the
presence or absence of the carrier.  When set to “Always on”, the “CD”
LED will always indicate that the carrier is “ON”.  Figure 3 (below)
summarizes the switch settings.  The default position is “Always ON”.

3.3  REAR CARD CONFIGURATION

The 222NRC has two interface card options: the 1Q11 (which

comes equipped with two RJ-11 ports and two RJ-45 ports) and the
1Q45 (which comes equipped with four RJ-45 ports).  Figure 4
illustrates these two different rear interface options.

Prior to installation, you should examine the rear card you have

selected and ensure that it is configured for your application.  Each rear
card is configured by setting straps on the PC board.  Sections 3.3.1
and 3.3.2 describe strap locations and settings for each card.
