4.2. Initialize the Unit to Default
Settings
If Setup Switch configuration has been changed while the MDS
is powered on, the unit must be initialized in order for the new
switch configuration to take effect.
When the MDS is initialized, the unit will revert to
the parameters specified by the current Set-Up
Switch configuration. Any command-selected
parameters will be lost.
1. Simultaneously press the SET and CLEAR buttons, located
on the face of the MDS unit.
2. Release the CLEAR button, wait one second, and then
release the SET button.
4.3. Connecting Devices to the MDS
Many different types of devices can be connected to the MDS.
To physically connect a device to the MDS, proceed as follows.
1. Access the Command Mode.
2. Determine which MDS port will be used for connection to
the new device (e.g. Port 3).
3. Attach an appropriate Snap Adapter to an RS-232 serial
port on the device you intend to connect. Refer to
Appendix A.2 for more information on WTI Snap Adapters.
a) Modem: An external modem can be connected to any
MDS port, providing the modem does not require
password protection, or an externally generated reset
message or hang-up message. Connect an SA-25M
Snap Adapter to the modem's serial port.
