6700-A2-GY31-70
July 1999
When the feature is installed, the Installation Completed! dialog box appears.
10. Choose OK to return to Windows.
Repeat this procedure for any additional NMS features you want to install.
11. To start NMS, choose the NMS icon from the COMSPHERE 6700 Program
Group window.
Installing Cables and Connectors
The NMS package includes a DB-25-S socket to 6-pin modular jack adapter. This
adapter provides a connection from the computer’s serial port to the SDU.
Prior to cabling the system, make sure you have a standard 6-pin to 6-pin
modular cord long enough to span the distance between the computer and the
SDU. The maximum distance is 50 feet (15 meters).
Procedure
1. Attach the DB-25-S connector of the adapter to the DB-25-P connector of the
serial port on the rear of the computer. If the serial port is not a DB-25-P
connector, refer to Appendix C,
Cabling Requirements,
for specific
information for selecting or constructing an adapter.
2. Plug one end of the modular cord into the 6-pin modular jack in the adapter.
3. Plug the other end of the modular cord into the CC IN jack of the SDU
installed in your COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier.
NMS is now connected to the devices installed in the carrier. For information on
how to daisy chain carriers together, refer to the
COMSPHERE 3000 Series
Carrier Installation Manual
