Minuteman RS232 User Manual

User's Manual
The Multi-Port Chassis (120V ONLY) allows the user to have three MINUTEMAN option cards working simultaneously.
The user can install three identical option cards or mix and match any of the available option cards from MINUTEMAN.
The Multi-Port Chassis can be daisy chained by using the RS232 Multi-Port Card. There are two status LEDs on the rear
panel. The Red LED indicates that there is power to the Multi-Port Chassis. The Green LED indicates the working status
of the Multi-Port Chassis. When the Green LED is blinking everything is normal, when the Green LED is off or on solid
this indicates that there is a problem.
