Processor Features - IBM i series Handbook

iSeries Model 830
These functions do not have equivalent function PCI cards for the Model 830:
• ASCII Adapter
• V.25 Autocall cable
• Select standby mode
• X.21 switched WAN dial-up or Shorthold Mode WAN
• Asynchronous communication speeds of less than 300 bps
• Data Rate Select signal on the EIA 232/V.24 interface. This function is used by some
older 2400 bps modems to reduce the speed to 1200 bps.
• LPDA-1 (Link Problem Determination Aids). This is a diagnostic function supported by
some (primarily older IBM) modems.
• V.54 local and remote loopback (diagnostics functions supported by some modems)
PCI adapters also do not support X.21 switched WAN dial-up or Shorthold Mode WAN.
The fundamental bus architecture of the iSeries server is unchanged when using PCI
adapters. The AS/400e IOP continues to off load the main processor; isolate the host from
adapter and network errors; and manage, configure, and service the adapters. PCI
architecture offers advantages in flexibility over non-iSeries or non-AS/400e server
structures.
