Configuration
Using the DIP s witches, you can configure the master / slave role, speed and auto-negotiation modes
of the T1 port.
6.1
T1 Role (DIP1)
DIP1 configures the T1 link role either to Master (ON) or Slave (OFF). If Auto Role Switch is active
(DIP2=ON; DIP3=OFF) it has no effect. If Auto-Negotiation (DIP3) is turned on DIP1 controls the
preferred role being advertised during auto-negotiation.
6.2
Auto Role Switch (DIP2)
DIP2 controls a proprietary Auto Role Switch function. When turned on, the Factory-Link-SPE-M
automatically determines the T1 link role (master or slave). This function is for easily connecting to
link partners without explicitly taking care of the role configuration.
The Auto Role Switch feature can increase the link setup time.
6.3
100BASE-TX Link
At the Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX) side (RJ45 port), the Factory-Link-SPE-M is configured for Auto-
Negotiation and solely advertises full-duplex 100Mbit/s capability.
