(DLSw). This option allows the transport network architecture to be standardized for TCP/IP. In the case of interfaces with public or private Wide Area Network (WAN), the Atlas 250 enables access to the Integ- rated Services Digital Network (ISDN) through a basic access via the D and/or B channel. In addition to the direct X.25 option, the possibility of FRAME-RELAY or PPP connections up to speeds of 2 Mbps has been added.
2 Installation Teldat S.A. Chapter 2 Installation The Atlas 250 multimedia router is designed to be both a desktop and a rack device. In either case, in order to ac- complish correct installation, please follow the recommendations given below: Caution Before connecting the device, please read the following instructions carefully.
(NT1 or TR1). You can use a flat cable with RJ45 male connectors, provided with the device. Passive-Bus terminal resistances The Atlas 250 routers have a pushbutton (labeled as “TERM”) in order to connect the BUS-S termination resist- Atlas 250...
2.2.4 Connecting for configuration The Atlas 250 routers have a DB-9 female connector on the rear panel referred to as “AUX” , which provides access to the device local console for configuration and monitoring purposes. In order to use this, you must connect the “AUX”...
2.3 Installation in a rack In order to install the Atlas 250 router in a 19-inch rack, you need two plastic strips like the ones shown in the figure. The strips and the associated screws are not included in the basic packet and need to be acquired separately.
At this point, if everything has gone smoothly, the S LED is lit up in green. An example of what is displayed on the console can be found in Procedure to ignore the configuration page 10 Atlas 250...
On the front panel, you can see the LEDs which display the status of the various interfaces and devices that the Atlas 250 router has. Located on the rear panel is the power point, the AUX console connection (in DB-9 format) for local configur- ation and monitoring and the micro-switches.
3.2 Description of the microswitches In the interior of the Atlas 250 routers, you will find a group of SW2 micro-switches. These are identified by the num- bers ‘1’ to ‘8’ as shown in the below figure. These activate test functions, software loading functions etc. All these mi- cro-switches are in the OFF position by default.
• Turn the device on with the ON/OFF switch. When the device is switched on, a message similar to the one shown below will appear on the configuration console: ************************************************** ******************* Router Teldat **************** ************************************************** BOOT CODE VERSION: 01.02 Dec 28 2004 12:56:28...
Page 15
As you can see, the text “Empty configuration used” appears in the box. On reaching this point, you can set micro- switch ‘5’ in the OFF position (it is not necessary to turn off the device). This way, the saved configuration will run next time you restart the device. Atlas 250...
• In order to view the content of the Smart Card, or the free space, use the ‘FILE LIST’ command from the configura- tion menu (please see manual “Dm704-I Configuration and Monitoring”). Given that the Smart Card is a slow device, it may take a few seconds to respond. Atlas 250...

As with any logical support, the Smart Card must be formatted before it can be used. The Smart Card is already formatted on leaving the factory. However, should it be necessary, the Atlas 250 has the means to do this.
This is handled as a standard disk unit. The executable codes have a .bin extension and can by updated via FTP us- ing the Atlas 250 router FTP server, and by XModem through the device local console. The configurations have a .cfg extension and can only be read and written via FTP. If you wish to make copies of your configurations, simply obtain the .cfg router file possessed by the router.
Teldat S.A. A.3.1 Updating using FTP The Teldat devices have an internal FTP server that is capable of distinguishing if the loading file is from BIOS, an application or comes from another source. Therefore, the server operation is completely transparent.
(not all of them are operative in this server). “help” <command_name> provides help on the indicated command. For further information, please consult the Teldat Router manual related to FTP, reference “Dm724-I FTP Protocol” .

A.6 Installing PMC Cards The Atlas 250 features and interfaces can be amplified by inserting PMC boards (PCI mezzanine card). The Atlas 250 will support up to 3 cards simultaneously. In order to correctly insert the card, please follow the steps given be- low.
Page 28
(4) Find the place where the PMC board needs to be located, depending on the availability of the free slots and the mechanical characteristics of the PMC board. The following figure shows the Atlas 250 baseboard as seen from the device front panel. The various slots are labeled as SLOT1, SLOT2 and SLOT3.
Page 29
(8) Place the PMC card in the slot so that it firstly adjusts to the space on the device rear panel and subsequently to the two PMC connections. This operation must be carried out carefully, without forcing any piece or part of the device. Check that the board is clearly settled over the PMC connectors. Atlas 250...
