The Telenetics DSP9612 (Flash Poll) modem is a 9600/4800/0- 1800 bps modem designed for 4-wire, full-duplex or 2-wire, half- duplex operation over a voice-band leased line or private line. The modem is designed utilizing the latest digital-signal processing (DSP) technology to achieve high performance.
Introduction Features The DSP9612 modem is specifically designed for harsh environments found in utility substations and industrial facilities. Though functionally similar to commercial modems, the DSP9612 provides the following unique features that make it well suited for utility and industrial applications. Packaged in a rugged, compact enclosure for industrial applications.
Applications The DSP9612 modem is designed for point-to-point and multipoint data communications. Figure 1-1 shows a typical multipoint configuration. Figure 1-1. Network of Multipoint Configuration There are a number of factors that can affect the network’s and modem’s operation and performance. These include: Operating speed 2-wire or 4-wire configuration Transmission line characteristics, noise, and line impairments...

Figure 2-2. Back View of Model DSP9612-LV Modem Front View The Model DSP9612FP and Model 9612-LV modems have identical front panels. Figure 2-3 shows the front view of the modem. Starting from the left side, this view shows: A set of nine LEDs. See page 29. A loopback test switch.
The location you select should provide easy access to the back panel communications interface(s) and front panel power interface. It should also let you view all the LEDs on the front panel. Telenetics also offers a rack-mount version of this modem Note: (Model DSP9612RM) as a plug-in module for the Telenetics/UDS RM16M Central Site Modem Rack.
Configuring the Modem You configure the modem using the three sets of DIP switches on the bottom of the modem. It is important to follow the three steps described below, in the order shown, to ensure that you configure IMPORTANT your modem properly using the modem DIP switches: 1.
Installation SW1 DIP Switch Settings SW1 is an 8-position DIP switch. Table 2-1 shows the modem switch settings for DIP switch SW1. A description of the SW1 switch settings follows the table. SW1 settings apply for both high-speed fast-poll and low- Note: speed (FSK) modes Table 2-1.
Page 14
SW1-1 through SW1-4 − Transmit Level Switches SW1-1 through SW1-4 adjust the modem’s transmit level. Table 2-2 shows the transmit levels you can select using these switches. Table 2-2. Transmit Levels Transmit Level 0 dBm −1 dBm −2 dBm −3 dBm −4 dBm −5 dBm −6 dBm...
Page 15
Installation SW1-5 − Receiver Dynamic Range 10 to −43 dBm SW1-5 − ON = OFF = +3 to −30 dBm For a low receive signal level, set SW1-5 to ON (−43 dBm ). For short distances or to select a strong receive signal, set SW1-5 to OFF. SW1-6 and SW1-7 −...
SW2 DIP Switch Settings SW2 is an 8-position DIP switch. Table 2-3 shows the modem switch settings for DIP switch SW2. A description of the SW2 switch settings follows the table. Table 2-3. Modem Switch Settings for DIP Switch SW2 Switches SW2-1: FSK Mode (page 18) SW2-2: Receiver Squelch (page 18)
Page 17
Installation SW2-1 FSK Mode SW2-1 ON = ITU-T V.23 mode OFF = Bell 202 mode The modem has two FSK modes: Bell 202, which supports data rates from 0 to 1800 bps ITU-T V.23, which supports data rates from 0 to 1200 bps SW2-1 configures the modem for either of these FSK modes.
Page 18
wire, half-duplex mode (SW3-7 ON), the modem squelches the receiver after RTS is turned off to prevent far-end echoes from causing data errors. The duration that the modem squelches the receiver is either: 8 milliseconds if the modem is configured for Bell 202 mode (SW2-1 OFF) 150 milliseconds if the modem is configured for ITU-T V.23 mode (SW2-1 ON)
Page 19
Installation When the modem is configured for V.23 operation (SW2-1 ON), the RTS-CTS delay is fixed at 33 ms. SW2-6 FSK CD Delay (Bell 202 Mode Only) SW2-6 ON = 23ms OFF = 6ms SW2-6 selects the FSK CD delay and is valid when Bell 202 mode is active (SW2-1 OFF).
SW3 DIP Switch Settings SW3 is a 10-position DIP switch. Table 2-5 shows the modem switch settings for DIP switch SW3. A description of the SW3 switch settings follows the table. Table 2-5. Modem Switch Settings for DIP Switch SW3 Switches SW3-1: Fast Poll/FSK (page 22) SW3-2: Data Rate (page 23)
Page 21
Installation SW3-1 − Fast Poll Auto Rate/FSK SW3-1 ON = Low-Speed Mode (FSK) OFF = High-Speed Mode (Fast Poll) The modem has two operating modes: FSK mode, which supports data rates from 0 to 1800 bps. Fast-poll mode, which supports data rates of 4800 and 9600 bps. SW3-1, along with the Data Rate Selector (DRS) pin on the modem’s RS-232 connector, configures the modem for either FSK or fast-poll mode.
Page 22
SW3-2 − Data Rate (Fast-Poll Mode Only) SW3-2 ON = 4800 bps OFF = 9600 bps SW3-2 configures the modem speed. When the modem is in high- speed fast-poll mode (SW3-1 OFF), setting SW3-2 ON selects 4800 bps, while setting SW3-2 OFF selects 9600 bps. SW3-3 −...
Page 23
Installation SW3-5 − Transmitter Termination SW3-5 ON = Switched by RTS OFF = 600 Ω SW3-5 is used for multi-point configuration networks. When multiple modems are connected on the same metallic circuit: The transmitter termination should be of high impedance if the modem is not transmitting.
Page 24
SW3-8 − Carrier Control SW3-8 ON = Constant OFF = Switched SW3-8 selects either constant or switched carrier. Constant carrier allows DTEs, such as asynchronous dumb terminals or RTUs, to operate with modems, without the input RTS signal. When constant carrier mode is enabled (SW3-8 set to ON), the modem forces the transmit carrier active and the RTS-CTS delay is minimum (<0.5 ms.).
Installation Connecting to a Transmission Line The modem has a transmission line interface that can be configured for 2- or 4-wire, analog connection, where one pair is used to transmit data (Tx and Tx) and one pair is used to receive data (Rx and Rx). Table 2-7 shows the pin numbers and corresponding signals for the modem.
Figure 2-4. Transmission Line Interface Connecting to a Voltage Source The back panel of the modem provides the power interface. For convenience, the modems can be powered from the following power sources: Model DSP9612FP (AC version): 85 to 265 Volts AC, 50 to 60 Hz, single phase or 85 to 400 VDC Model DSP9612-LV (DC version): 10 to 53 Volts DC.
Installation Before you connect a voltage source, observe the following power supply voltage guidelines. WARNING Otherwise, you will void your warranty if the wrong voltage is applied. Be sure the voltage source is within the permitted ranges shown above. Otherwise, your modem and any attached devices may be damaged.
