On-Site Checks
Start with test 1). Follow the test numbers depending on the result of each test. After a
change is made start with test 1) again.
1) Is the green 'Power' light on?
2) Press the 'Test' button for 1 second. Does the buzzer sound and the yellow
'Data available' light come on after a number of seconds? Yes 3) No 4)
The TR-2100 is working correctly. The fault is with the modem, data switch or
phone line.
3) Is the internal modem board seated correctly? (This is the short board near
the bottom of the unit with the grey phone connection.)
4) Is the red light on the processor board on. (This is the board at the centre of
the TR-2100)
5) Is the power switch on? This is the toggle switch found at the bottom right of
the bottom tray behind the front panel.
6) Switch system on
7) Restart the TR-2100 by switching off the supply waiting a few seconds then
switching it on again. The processor should 'beep' several times as it checks
its memory. After this there is short delay then the 'On line' light will be
illuminated. The red 'Attention' light will also come on which is normal.
This may be cleared by pressing the 'Test' button. This, in turn, will cause
the 'Data available' light to be illuminated since a test record has been
generated. Did this work correctly?
8) Ring the person with Display Station and ask them to contact the TR-2100.
The phone should ring once then the modem should answer. If line share
device is being used then an 'M' should be displayed on its front panel. The
modem will respond with a number of tones followed by a 'hash' sound (like
an AM radio not tuned to a station). This should end and a few seconds later
the TR-2100 'Communications' light will come on. This indicates a valid
connection. Was the connection completed?
9) Connect a laptop computer running Display Station to the front of the TR-
2100. Check the 'Comms Manager' settings. The port should be COM1 or
COM2 and the speed should be 9600, 19200, 34800 or 57600. The actual
values will depend on the computer in use and the speed set on the internal
DIP switches in the TR-2100. Make a 'Direct' connection. Is the connection
successful?
