• Initial Configuration
Figure 7. Rear view of the 2621 showing location of Ethernet and X.21 connectors
When the local third party equipment is configured as DTE, the Model 3086 X.21 serial port can be config-
ured as DCE, and a regular straight-through cable can then be used. Do the following to configure the X.21
port as a DCE:
1.
Open the OnSite device’s case by inserting a screwdriver into the slots and twist the screwdriver head
slightly. The top half of the case will separate from the lower half of the case (see
figure 8
). Take caution
not to damage any of the PC board mounted components.
