SSU-2000 Status LED Indicators
All modules used in the SSU-2000 main chassis and in the optional SDU-2000
Expansion shelf contain status LED indicators that provide a visual indication of
module status. The Communications module provides both system and individual
module status whereas all other modules provide individual module status only. For
more information on individual module status LED indicators, refer to
Chapter 7, Input Module Reference Data
, and
Chapter 8, Output Module Reference Data.
SSU-2000 Operating Controls
The SSU-2000 contains four hardware operating controls:
Three DCE/DTE select switches associated with the three RS-232 ports. One
switch is located on the front of the Communications module and the remaining
two are located on the rear panel of the SSU-2000. The DCE position is for
connection to a PC and the DTE position is for connection to a modem.
Reset (RST) switch on the Communications module
All other controls on the SSU-2000 are software-based. To provision the settings,
you must first connect to the SSU-2000 using a serial port or the Ethernet port.
