Installation
2-8 Issue 2 November 1996
The most common EIA-232-D Connector cords are supplied with a male
connector at both ends. If you have this type of cord and the EIA-232-D port on
your terminal device is a male connector, you can use an adapter commonly
referred to as a “gender changer.” Otherwise, obtain an EIA Connector cord that
has the appropriate gender connector at each end to fit your application needs.
Selecting DCP Cords
One or more 7-foot D8W cords are supplied with your 8400B Plus Data Module.
Use the supplied cord, or obtain the appropriate length D8W telephone cord. If
you are using the With Telephone option (see ‘‘With Telephone’’ on page 2-12),
you will need the D8W telephone cord (already supplied with your telephone) to
connect between the 8400B Plus Data Module and your telephone.
Hardware Installation
This section outlines procedures for connecting the EIA Connector cord and
M9/F25 Adapter, installing the power supply, and connecting the D8W
