SMM Craft Port Connectors

The MANAGER craft port connector allows you to attach an asynchronous terminal for local
configuration and management of the switch via Slot-0.
The MGR STBY craft port is typically used by field service personnel to connect to Slot-1 of the
Xedge 6160 switch for troubleshooting/debugging purposes. (Slot-1 is not used for system
configuration.)
For security, the MANAGER and MGR STBY craft ports can be locked using the front panel ON/
OFF rotary switch lock, as shown in
To lock a port: Use the actuator/key at the MANAGER or MGR STBY switch to set the
associated craft port to OFF, then pull out the key. That craft port connector is now
locked.
To unlock a port: Insert the actuator/key at the MANAGER or MGR STBY switch and
set the switch to ON. That craft port connector is now unlocked.
To connect a terminal, perform the following steps:
1. Connect the terminal to the MANAGER female DB-9 connector at the SMM front panel. If
you are using redundant Slot-0, use a "Y" cable (P/N 028H350-X06) to connect both the
MANAGER and MGR STBY port connectors to the terminal.
2. Set the terminal to the following parameters:
VT100 emulation
19,200 baud
8 character bits
No parity
No flow control
Data Terminal Ready (DTR, pin 4) high from terminal.

Note
At the SMM craft port connectors, RTS (Pin 7) is tied internally to CTS (Pin 8).
Note
The initial model of the Xedge PCL(1) slot controller is intended for operation only in the Xedge 6002 chassis
with the local management terminal set to 9600 baud. A later model of the Xedge PCL(2) is intended for
nonslot-0 use in any Xedge chassis with the terminal set to 19,200 baud.
