Definity - Configuring the Office Module
Pre-Configuration Checklist
Ensure that the installation procedure for the Office Module has been completed, and all cables are con-
nected correctly.
Configuration Procedure
The Office Module's serial communications port (the COM port) is used by all three data types: Serial,
Ethernet and Dial-up (default) . For the Serial and Dial-up modes, it is the means of transmitting and receiv-
ing data to and from the unit. For the Ethernet data type, it provides access to a management interface (which
you access with a VT100 compatible terminal emulation program).
To connect the Office Module and your PC, you need a straight through RS-232 serial cable with a male
DB9 connector. The connector on the other end of the cable is dependent upon your PC's serial port connec-
tor.
For U interface units you must program the SPID numbers and the numbers for your ISDN line. For S/T
interface you can configure the MSN numbers if required.
For basic operation of S/T interface units (no data) there is no need to change the default settings pro-
grammed in the EXTender. Refer to the 3000 System Administrator's Guide for directions on configuring
the EXTender for data operation.
Accessing the Terminal Configuration Menu
For all data types:
1.
To access the configuration menu for the Switch Module, you must connect a terminal or PC to the RS-
232 port of the Switch Module.
The PC must be running a terminal emulation package. Configure your terminal or terminal application
to 9600bps, No parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit. The terminal type should be set to VT100.
2.
Unplug the Office Module, and plug it back in after waiting a few seconds. When the Office Module is
powered-up, it will begin a specific blink sequence eventually ending with a series of 3 sets of yellow
blinks.
3.
Type the word MENU from your PC or terminal while the LED blinks its first set of 8 yellow flashes,
described above. The Configuration menu will appear.
For dialup data type only:
If your Module's data type is Dial-up (the factory default data type) you can access terminal configuration at
any time from the AT command mode.
1.
To access the configuration menu you must connect a terminal or PC to the RS-232 port of the Office
Module. The PC must be running a terminal emulation package with terminal type set to VT100.
2.
Configure your PC COM port settings to match the Office Module.The factory default COM port set-
tings for dial-up data types are: 57600 bps, No parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit. If this has been changed
set your PC to use the current settings or use the Power-up Access Method (optional).
