¥ one 25-pin straight-through cable for the STA terminal
¥ the following software packages:
Ñ Single Terminal Access (STA) (package 228)
Ñ MSDL (package 222)
Ñ MSDL SDI (package 227)
Before you begin
To ensure successful STA implementation, the following criteria must be
met:
¥ The IPE Module must be connected to a Meridian 1 Options 21Ð81
system, or the Application Module must have an MVME712M
transition card.
¥ An MSDL card must be installed in your system and set for RS-232
DCE. For information on installing an MSDL card, refer to Chapter 8,
ÒHardware installation procedures.Ó
¥ Port 0 on the MSDL card must be available for the configuration of an
STA terminal, which acts as a switchboard between the multiple
applications.
¥ At least one other port must be available for your STA system port
connection to the Meridian Link/CCR.
Note: In order to get optimum use out of the STA feature (that is, to
allow for connection to Meridian MAX and Meridian Mail), you may
need additional available ports on your MSDL card.
