Connecting and Logging On
The following instructions describe how to connect a Service Kit to a base
station via a direct RS-232 link to the control panel. For more detail, see
“Connecting to a Base Station” on page 44 and “Logging On” on page 46 .
To connect and log on to a base station
1. If the Service Kit is not already running, select Start > Programs > Tait
Programming Applications > TB8100 Service Kit.
2. Connect the supplied cable or a standard mouse extension cable from a serial
port on your PC to the serial port on the control panel.
3. If the subrack has more than one base station, make sure that the control
panel selects the base station you want to connect to.
4. On the toolbar, click Connect . The Connecting dialog box appears.
5. In the Connect to box, select a connection for the serial port you used. The
Type field now shows ‘Direct Connection.’
6. Click Connect .
7. If the reciter is fitted with an Ethernet interface, turn its power off and then
on again; the control panel serial port is only available straight after base
station start-up.
Once the connection is established, the Log On dialog box appears.
8. Log on to the base station as follows.
a. Select an access level .
b. Enter the password for that level of access to the base station. (For more
information, see “Logon Details” on page 47 .)
c. Click OK to log on and close the dialog box. The status bar shows the
name of the connection and the base station you are logged on to.
You can now monitor the base station, conduct diagnostic tests, and read and
modify the base station’s configuration.
