The Extender is designed to use an RS-422 transmission medium, which prescribes
differential receivers for high noise immunity. To ensure signal integrity, only use
shielded cable for the serial-port connections. If you are not using a cable provided
by Black Box, listed below are the appropriate connections for proper operation.
3.2 Configuring and Installing the IEEE 488 Fiber Bus Extender (IC096A)
3.2.1 O
VERVIEW
This section describes the configuration necessary for the fiberoptic IEEE 488
Fiber Bus Extenders. If you are using the RS-422 extenders (IC095A), refer to
Section 3.1
.
Two Extenders are required for bus extension, with one connected directly
to the local IEEE bus, and the other connected to the remote IEEE bus.
Both local and remote Extenders are identical. At power-up, each Extender
monitors the Attention (ATN) and Remote Enable (REN) lines. The Error LED
on each Extender will blink, indicating that ATN or REN has not yet been detected
and that communication with the other Extender has not yet been established.
The first Extender to detect either of these lines asserted declares itself the local
Extender and commands the other Extender to declare itself the remote Extender.
The Error LEDs will now stop blinking. From this moment on, the local Extender
will monitor all local bus activity and transmit this activity to the remote Extender.
All activity detected by the remote Extender is also communicated back to the
local Extender.
WARNING!
There are no user-serviceable parts or user-selectable parameters inside
the Extender’s case. Refer all servicing to qualified repair personnel. Refer
to Section 6.4 for additional information on malfunctioning equipment.
