Modem provides an RJ11 connection for
the POTS connection. Modem should be
mounted according to respective system
drawing.
Use routing techniques per code to
connect from the controller to the POTS
line. Note: Use of the modem does
require a dedicated connection to the
controller’s local RS-232 Craft port.
7 Local RS-232 Serial Port Connector
Standard RS-232 serial connection (DB-9
or RJ45) provided at the front panel for
local Craft port or Modem. A PC using
EasyView or a standard terminal emulator
can be connected for local access. The
port can also be configured to support an
external/Internal modem.
The local port pin assignments take the
assignment as a Data Circuit-terminating
Equipment (DCE).
When the RS-232 port is configured for a
Modem, Craft port connectivity is
temporarily lost. The Modem will have to
be disconnected to use the port as a Craft
port. This port is factory defaulted to
operate as local Craft port.
