The figure below shows two options for mounting: a 19-inch rack and a 23-inch rack. a rack Note that the ears are not identical. The ear intended for the right side of the unit (as viewed from the front) is marked with a part number beginning with the letter “R”. -
Page 22: Power Up The Chassis
The voltage requirements are specified on the rear panel of the power supply. power source Plug the power cord into the DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU power input connector first, then into the power receptacle. Secure the power cord to the back panel of the IDSU with a plastic cable tie to prevent the cord from being unplugged inadvertently. -
Page 23: Source
Connecting to a DC Connect the installed DC power supply to a power source capable of supplying the appropriate voltage and current. The requirements are specified on the rear panel of the power source supply. Wire the power supply as described below. Wiring the DC power connector Turn off the DC power source. -
Page 24: Using The Alarm
Using the alarm relay The DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU provides an external alarm relay switch that you can use to trigger an external alarm device. This switch provides normally-open and normally-closed positions. Wire the alarm relay as follows: Prepare three 14 to 22 AWG (1.63 to 0.64 mm) wires to terminate in the alarm relay plug. -
Page 25: Self-Test Diagnostics
Telnet, self-test will break your remote connection. Successful power up The self-test verifies the functions of DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU hardware circuitry. The results of self-test are indicated by the POWER/FAIL LED on the front of the unit. This LED glows red for approximately 6 seconds until the self-test completes. -
Page 27: Chapter 4 Cabling Interfaces And Ports
Cabling interfaces and ports This chapter shows you the cabling requirements for the DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU net- work interface, data port, and control port. It also shows you how to cable the unit for daisy-chaining. After completing these cabling procedures, you will be ready to configure the port soft-... -

DTE port. The DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU control ports are set to the following defaults: 9600 baud, 8 data-bits-per-character, 1-stop bit-per-character, and no parity. You must either set your terminal to match the port settings or change the port settings to match your terminal settings. - Page 32 Connecting control ports to a modem Connect a modem to the DTE port after configuring the modem with the AT commands in the list below. It is essential to configure the modem before connecting it to the DTE port because many modems cannot be configured afterwards. This configuration sets auto- answering, flow control, and some other parameters essential to successful communication.

Page 33: Configuring Units Via A Daisy-Chain
Configuring units via a daisy-chain Daisy-chaining allows you a single point of control for many units. The manner in which you cable the units together depends on whether you are using a DCE or DTE control port. Using the DCE Make sure the physical communications parameters (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, etc.) for all ports are set up identically. - Page 34 Procedure 2 Set the baud rate, parity, data and stop bits correctly on the next IDSU, as specified page Connect the power cord and power on the unit, as specified on page Connect the next IDSU DCE port to the DTE port of the IDSU you just set up. Press the Enter key.
