This chapter describes:
Verifying Modemulator Operation
Testing Modemulator Connectivity
For detailed configuration and advanced operating features see the
section in this guide, and see the
USR3520/USR803520 Gateway User Guide
Verifying Modemulator Operation
Because Modemulators make a peer-to-peer connection to another Modemulator, it is required to
perform this set-up procedure on two Modemulators.
For the USR3520/USR803520, please proceed directly to step 1.
For the USR3516-EMU upgrade kit, first follow the instructions in the
USR3516-EMU Installation Guide
upgrade a USR3510/USR803510 Gateway to a USR3520/USR803520.
1.
Check system requirements:
Computer with an DB9 RS-232 serial port
Terminal emulation application that communicates with a COM port
If the computer does not have a serial port, use a USB-to-serial cable that is compatible with the
computer’s operating system.
2.
Connect a computer to the Modemulator.
Use a DB9-to-DB9 serial cable to connect the computer’s serial port to the Modemulator Terminal
port.
Serial cables are widely available from electronics distributors and retailers.
3.
Connect the included power supply unit (PSU) to the base unit.
Use the included PSU to power the base unit. Connect the PSU output jack to the power supply
input, and then plug the PSU into a mains power outlet.
The Modemulator will take about two minutes to become operational.
