Modes of Operation
The iMcV-LIM allows for three modes of operation:
• Auto Negotiation (AN) enabled by default
• Force 10
• Force 100
The module should be configured for one of these modes.
In Auto Negotiation mode, the module will optimally and automatically configure for
speed (10 or 100 Mbps) depending on the capabilities of the end stations. To enable
Auto Negotiation mode, set switch S2 to the ON position, with switches S3 and S4 in
the OFF position.
In Force 10 mode, the module acts as a 10Base-T to 10Base-FL media converter; 100
Mbps signals are not accepted. To enable Force 10 mode, set switch S3 and S4 to
the ON position, with switch S2 in the OFF position.
In Force 100 mode, the module acts as a 100Base-TX to 100Base-SX multi-mode or
100Base-FX single-mode fiber media converter; 10 Mbps signals are not accepted.
To enable Force 100 mode, set switch S3 to the ON position, with switches S2 and
S4 in the OFF position.
