3 CABLING
CAUTION: Power should be removed anytime cables are installed.
3.1 10BASE2 (COAX) CONNECTION
The 10BASE2 port of the DS73 module connects to any BNC connector on the network cable. BayTech provides a
T-connector for this purpose. Please see the figure below.
3.2 10BASE-T (MODULAR) CONNECTION
If your network uses 10BASE-T, RJ-45 connectors, connect an RJ-
45 cable between the RJ-45 port and the network hub. The
modular port is defined as DTE (i.e., Pin 1 is TD+, Pin 2 is TD-, Pin
3 is RD+, and Pin 6 is RD-). Most RJ-45 network hubs will require a
straight cable type. The LINK (link integrity) LED on the back
panel and at the connected port on the hub will illuminate if there
is a good connection between the DS73 and the hub.
4 OPERATION
4.1 PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
4.1.1 IP ADDRESS
The IP Address is the network address for the DS73 module. The IP Address consists of four bytes with each byte
ranging from 0 to 255 decimal. This parameter must be programmed before the DS73 can be accessed on the network.
The factory default IP Address is 0.0.0.0.
4.1.2 SUBNET MASK
The Subnet Mask is a bit mask that identifies the network portion of the IP address, allowing the DS73 to determine
whether to send a packet directly to the client or to a gateway. The Subnet Mask consists of four bytes with each
byte ranging from 0 to 255 decimal. This parameter must be programmed before the DS73 can be accessed on the
network. The factory default Subnet Mask is 0.0.0.0.
4.1.3 GATEWAY
The Gateway is the address of a router for connection to other networks. The Gateway address consists of four
bytes with each byte ranging from 0 to 255 decimal. The factory default Gateway address is 0.0.0.0.
4.1.4 SELECT CODE
The Port Select Code is sent as part of a select sequence by the host terminal to the DS73 module in order to select
the network host to issue configuration or data commands. The port select code is a programmable ASCII character
string that can range from 1 to 8 characters. The Operator's Manual describes how the port select code is used to
select a specific module or the main board of an DS-Series unit.
4.1.5 PASSWORD
The DS73 Password, if enabled, is required of all users who attempt to access the DS73. The Password consists of an
ASCII character string with a maximum length of 8 characters. The factory default Password is BTA.
4.1.6 USER INTERFACE
User Interface is used to enable or disable the "welcome message" that is sent when a workstation establishes a
connection to the DS73. User Interface is also used to enable or disable the login procedure. The welcome message
and login procedure are enabled by default.
