Circuit Card Description and Installation
• Wire test mode
• Self diagnostics
• Inbound modem pooling with any asynchronous modems
• Outbound modem pooling using “dumb” modems
• Outbound modem pooling using auto dialing modems
Controls and indicators
The LEDs on the DAC faceplate indicate the status mode for each port.
Figure 88 on
page 431 shows the NT7D16 DAC faceplate.
Card status
The LED at the top of the faceplate is unlabeled. This LED is:
• off: if one or more ports are enabled
• on: if all ports are disabled
Electronic Industries Association signal monitors
The six LEDs located below the card status LED are labeled SD, RD, DTR,
DSR, DCD, and RI. They show the dynamic state of the associated Electronic
Industries Association (EIA) control leads for a specific port (as shown by the
display). When in RS-422 mode, only SD and RD are utilized. When in
RS-232-C mode, the LED goes on to indicate that the signal is asserted on, or
off to indicate that the signal is asserted off. When the LED is off, there is no
active voltage on the signal lead.
CONNECT
This lamp lights to indicate that a data call is established for the port
displayed. A data call is connected when the data module-to-data module
protocol messages are successfully exchanged between the two ends.
