2.10 Maintenance Mode
2.10.1 Outline
This unit is also equipped with an RS-232C port as an interface
for external equipment other than the SCSI interface which is
used for connection to the host computer. The RS-232C port is
used mainly for the following two purposes:
(a) Remote Maintenance:
It can be used for remote diagnostic operation by connecting
to the public telephone line via a modem.
(b) Direct Maintenance:
It can be used for diagnostic operation by direct connection
to a computer, etc.
In either way, while this unit is operated in the system the me-
chanical operation checking, which is one of the checking func-
tions of the self-diagnosis operation, is not available.
*Judgment whether remote or direct maintenance Checks
whether the modem is connected or not when the power is
turned ON, and judges the unit is in the “remote maintenance”
or “direct maintenance” mode.
· The modem control AT command (Z: Reset) is transmitted to
the RS-232C port. And if there is a response, the unit is oper-
ated as the “remote maintenance” mode, and if there is no
response, the unit is operated as the “direct maintenance”
mode.
