generate a data pattern from the locally attached DTE or have
the modem generate a test pattern.
You can also run line and modem tests to verify the integrity
of the line between the local and remote modems. With this
test, the local Modem 202T loops back received data to the
transmitter and sends the data to the remote modem. These
characters can be done by using a modem test pattern or by
originating a data pattern from the local DTE.
Configuration is simple!
To configure the Modem 202T, just set a few DIP switches.
These jumper settings control operating characteristics such
as the dynamic range of the modem receiver, the transmit level,
and the call turnaround squelch (which guards against echoes
from already-completed transmissions).
By default, the Modem 202T’s DIP switches are set for 4-wire,
full duplex operation. To reconfigure the modem for 2-wire, half-
duplex applications, just change the jumper settings.
When configured for 4-wire, full duplex operation, the
modem can be strapped to transmit data to corresponding slave
modems with no RTS to Carrier Turnoff Signal (CTS) delay, which
is ideal for minimizing turnaround. To increase the modem’s
turnaround time, just configure it for 2-wire, half-duplex
operation. This will enable the modem to encounter an RTS-to-
CTS delay when transmitting to its slave modems.
On the inside of the Modem 202T is a simple three-position
header for full or half-duplex mode. The device’s DCE interface
quickly connects to any device equipped with a standard DB9
or DB25 connector.
Troubleshooting’s easy, too.
An LED control display enables you to confirm modem
operation at a glance, and a local and remote test switch
enables verification of the link’s integrity.
Along with the Modem 202 or Modem 202T, you’ll receive
a cable for making RJ-45 to 4-wire leased-line connections.
But to connect a data terminal, you’ll need an RS-232 cable.
