4.0 Hardware Installation (Cabling)
Installing a WINC 2400C involves a simple cable connection between it and a synchronous data device.
However, beffore you can make it operational for wireless data transmission among various units of
WINC 2400Cs, each unit has to be properly configurated. The configuratiion of each unit requires the
connection with a PC or a termainal. (After the configuration task is completed, the PC or terminal can
either stay connected for monitoring purpose or be disconnected). The following instructions are provided
to assist you in wiring peier to the configuration.
7. Turn on the WINC 2400C modem. The WINC 2400C performs a brief self-test. LED indicator
lights will be displayed on the front panel. Each LED displays single or dual colors. Green indicates
an active state or signal presence, whereas red indicates otherwise. See Appendix C, WINC 2400C
Synchronous Interface Status, for LED indicator definitions.
1. Turn your computer off before starting.
2. Connect the asynchronous configuration port of the WINC 2400C to your computer's
serial port using an RS-232, DB-9 connector and associated cable.

3. The DB-25 connector of WINC 2400C is used to connect to a synchronous device like a digital
multiplexer or LAN bridge. This DB-25 port can be configured as RS-23, V.35, or RS-422 by
configuration software. Please refer to Appendix C for detailed pin definition for different interfaces.
4. Attach the rubber omni antenna to the matching connector on the rear of the WINC 2400C.
5. With the WINC 2400C power switch in the off position, connect the power cord to the rear of the unit
and plug it into the electrical jack nearest your equipment. The WINC 2400C is equipped with a
universal power supply for 110-220 volts and will internally adjust itself for either voltage.
6. Turn on the computer and the synchronous device, if applicable.
