Configuring the SDI paddle board 815
Configuring the SDI paddle board
Configuring the SDI paddle board to work in a Meridian 1 system consists of
setting these option switches for each serial port:
• Port address
•
Baud rate
•
DTE/DCE/Fiber mode
The SDI paddle board has seven option switches, SW 2–8. Figure 268 "SDI
paddle board option switch locations" (page 817) identifies the location of
option switches on the SDI paddle board. Instructions for setting these
switches are in the section that follows.
Once the board has been installed, the system software must be configured
to recognize it. Instructions for doing this are found in ""Software service
changes" (page 808)".
