Its allow you to monitor the parameters using a telephone line.
DESCRIPTION
It is possible to remotely monitor a drive by using the phone line. In one side we have SuperDrive
connected to a modem (internal or external). On the other side of the phone line we have another modem
with auto-answer feature, which is connected to a drive. SuperDrive dials the modem with auto-answer
feature, the modems establish the communication with each other, and then it is possible to monitor the
drive. Figure below illustrates the application.
(1) PC with SuperDrive Software.
(2) Internal or external Modem.
(3) External modem with auto-answer feature.
(4) Drive.
(5) Direct Modem cable (pin-to-pin) when modem is external.
(6) Telephone Line.
(7) Modem Null Cable (crossover cable).
(8) RS232 PC/Drive serial cable (SuperDrive standard cable).
Direct Modem Cable (pin-to-pin) when using external modem.
This pin-to-pin cable is used to connect the microcomputer to the modem and perform the dialing. This
pin-to-pin characteristic means that the same signal from one cable end must be connected to the other
cable end.
Example 1: in case of using a cable with two DB9 connectors, pin 1 of the connector will be connected to
the pin 1 of the other connector, pin 2 connected to pin 2, and so on.
Example 2: when a DB25 connector cable is connected to a DB9 connector, the pin 8 of the connector
DB25 must be connected to the pin 1 of the DB9 connector, and pin 3 of the connector DB25 must be
