Network hardware
The Ethernet interface on the DocuSP controller is a 10/100 MB
per sec twisted pair standard (10BaseT or 100Base T).
Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) Coax Ethernet is enabled with
an optional adapter cable.
The Ethernet connection to the DocuSP controller must be
compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 standard.
Network protocols
The DocuSP controller supports TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, Socket TCP/
IP, and EtherTalk Link Access Protocol (ELAP) protocols if the
proper gateways are installed on the controller.
NOTE: The DocuSP controller does not provide Novell server
network services. If you plan to use the IPX/SPX protocol, you
must have a Novell server installed on your network.
One telephone line is recommended where the DocuTech printer
is installed.
Customer support
There will be times when the operator or administrator will need
to read the screen information from the DocuSP controller
dialogs to the customer support personnel. Therefore, it is
necessary to provide a telephone in close proximity to the
DocuTech system so that the operator or administrator can
easily view the screen and operate the system while remaining
on the telephone.
Modem
The installation of the modem requires that a dedicated
telephone line is available at the DocuTech site. The telephone
line specifications are:
•
Standard voice grade telephone line, 2-wire switched.
•
Dedicated, non-shared line.
