Communications
The SAGE host software installed on a personal computer allows for
data retrieval and analysis. Communications with the LTC-MAP 2130
must be established in order to download data to the PC or upload
configuration information to the terminal. Communication between the
PC and the monitor can be established:
• Directly via the front panel serial port and a null modem cable
to a personal computer running the SAGE host software.
NOTE: SAGE host software must be installed on the PC for
proper communication to take place. The front panel serial
port does not support dumb terminal operation.
• Over phone lines using an optional modem installed inside the
monitor.
• Over phone lines via a phone multiplexer installed in the
control house and connected to several LTC-MAP 2130
monitors. Refer to Document No. 70061MP for detailed
information on the phone multiplexers available from Reuter-
Stokes, Inc.
CAUTION: The serial port and the modem cannot function
simultaneously. When using the serial port for communications, the
internal modem (if installed) must be disconnected at J8; otherwise
the serial port will not function.
