  • Page 9: Serial/Rs-232

    Serial/RS-232 The switch CPU card has two RS-232 serial ports. One is for the Linux command line interface (labeled CONSOLE), and the other is for the switch's ASCII command interface (labeled RS232). If a back-up CPU is installed, then its Linux console port is active. However, only the 'RS232' port on the active CPU will function.

  • Page 27: Service Request (Los) Signaling

    Service Request (LOS) Signaling TLX Matrix Switches have an optional mode that can broadcast a message over the network when a remote receiver requests attention. When enabled, the receiver will toggle its TX pin, causing an LOS (loss of signal) event to occur at the switch. When detected, the switch broadcasts an 'Attention Request' message over the network.
  • Page 28: Ntp

    Network Time Protocol - Used to keep the switch’s internal clock set to the correct time. All internal clocks drift slightly over time. By enabling this service, you keep the switch's clock synchronized to an external time reference. To use the service, you must have a time server running on your network or allow the switch to access a public time server.
