4 Local Craft Interface
4.1 Craft Interface Terminal Port
The modem has a Craft Interface Terminal (CIT) port that is used to configure it and monitor its operation. The
user interface is a text-based “command line” style so that it is compatible with most laptop Personal Computers
(PCs) and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs). Terminal emulator software such as “HyperTerminal” or
equivalent is required for the PC or PDA.
The physical interface is 9600 baud serial with a 9 pin female D-sub connector (DE-9F). The connector is
configured as Date Communication Equipment (DCE) so a straight thru cable is used to connect to a typical PC or
PDA.
In the following descriptions the authorization designation “RO” indicates the command is “read only” meaning
the current value can be displayed but not changed. The designation “RW” indicates the command is “read /
write” and the value can be both displayed and changed.
When a command is entered without an optional parameter, the current value is displayed. When the command is
entered with a parameter, the value will be changed to the specified value.
In the following usage descriptions, ptional parameters are shown enclosed in square brackets [ ]. Alternative
parameters are shown in angle brackets < > and separated by a vertical bar. Unless otherwise noted, only one of
the alternatives should be entered. Neither the angle brackets nor the vertical bar should be entered as part of the
command.
