Connecting A

Modem

The DXP has its own proprietary modem, product number DXMDM,

so installation is simple. You can use a non-proprietary modem, but

using the modem designed for the DXP is a good idea. The modem

installs next to the power supply in the main cabinet. All that’s

involved in the hardware connection is attaching the mounting screw

to the card cage. The top jack on the modem is for the line cord, and

the bottom jack is for the serial data connection. You can connect the

modem to any available serial data port on DXP. The power cord from

the modem attaches to the

precharge

port on the power supply. We’ll

set the Dip switch 7 to the ON position because the modem depends

upon the DXP for its power and configuration, and with switch 7 on,

the system automatically sends the initialization string to the modem

in case of a power failure or system reboot.
