Twinaxial Installation Preparation
When you attach a device to the System 3X cabling, be sure to observe the following:
1. A maximum of only seven devices can attach to a twinax port (addresses 0
through 6).
2. You cannot have duplicate addresses. For example: two devices with an address
of 00.
3. The logical address does not have to correspond to the physical location of the
device on the twinax line.
4. The printer emulation must match the device type for which the system is
configured.
5. When you address a device, either at the device or configuring it onto the system,
remember that the address is comprised of two parts; the first is the PORT to
which the device is attached, and the second is the logical location of the device
or the device address. For example: ADDRESS 10 means the device is on PORT
1 with the address of 0, this is the number dialed onto the address switch of the
I/O on the printer.
6. As a precaution, have the print jobs placed ON HOLD and have the terminals
SIGN OFF on the line that you are working on.
Getting On-line
This section will use the terms “Up Stream” and “Down Stream”. “Up Stream” describes a
device that is physically located closer to the system on the twinax line. “Down Stream”
describes a device physically located more distant from the system on the twinax line. For
example, if this printer is the third device on the line, the immediate “up stream” device
would be the second device on this line.
To put the printer on-line, perform the following steps:
Step 1 - Power down the printer.
Step 2 - If there are any active devices on the twinaxial line that the printer is going to be on,
you must:
a. Disable or remove the line termination on the device immediately up stream.
b. Place on hold any active jobs or spool file entries for any down stream
devices.
c. Sign off any active down stream terminals and terminal type devices.
Step 3 - Observe the following and attach the twinax cable to the printer I/O:
