Communication Server 1000E Installation and Commissioning
SDI2 is not available during the MGC bootup, it cannot be used to access the
installation menus.
All of the SDI ports on the MGC are configured via software. There are no
DIP switches on the MGC for configuring the baud rate of SDI0.
Controlling the baud rate
You can use a switch setting on the SSC’s faceplate to control the baud rate
for port 0. Use LD 17 to configure port 1 and port 2. Make sure the baud rate
and device option settings are set correctly.
• Use Port 0 for software installation and upgrades. Port 0 is the only
system terminal (SDI) port that you can use for software installation and
upgrades.
• You can use all three ports on the SSC to connect terminals or modems.
• Use an NTBK48 3-port SDI cable with the SSC.
Table 23 shows the SDI port numbering.
