The Meridian Communications Adapter (MCA) mounts within the telephone
and allows asynchronous and synchronous ASCII terminals, and personal
computers to be connected to the telephone using an RS-232C or V.35
interface on a DB-25 connector. The MCA replaces the Meridian
Programmable Data Adapter (MPDA). Data programming can be
implemented on the MCA through a service change (LD11) as well as the
keypad.
Use the following procedures to add the Meridian Communications Adapter
(MCA) or Meridian Programmable Data Adapter (MPDA) to the telephone
and to connect it to a terminal or personal computer.
When using the MCA for synchronous data connections, configure the
telephone with a display option to view the data parameters. The MPDA and
MCA are supported on M2000 Series Meridian Digital Telephones only.
