Step 4
Tighten the EIA/TIA-232/V.24 connector screws to firmly attach the cable connector to the AUX port
connector.
Step 5 Plug the printer power cord into the appropriate wall receptacle.
Connecting a Modem
Two modems can be connected to the IGX node to provide access for remote troubleshooting and for
remote alarm logging. (See Figure 3-22.) Each connection between the SCM and a modem requires a
special cable and setup procedure.
The modem that provides access for remote troubleshooting from the Cisco TAC office (TAC-to-IGX
modem) connects to the Control Terminal port on the SCM. Typically, the modem connects to the
telephone wall jack with a direct-dial line. For information on contacting TAC, see the “Obtaining
Technical Assistance” section on page xxiii.
The modem that is used to provide remote alarm logging (IGX-to-TAC modem) is connected to the AUX
port on the SCM. This modem connects to a wall jack using a standard telephone line.
