EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
910.1 REMOTE ADMINISTRATION
ADAPTOR UNIT
The Remote Administration Adaptor Unit @AA-E) is
a compact, self contained unit (7.9 in x 3.9 in x 1.9 in,
200mm x 1OOmm x 50mm) that allows remote or local
programming of the Electra Mark11 system by means
of a personal computer.
The RAA-E Unit contains an RJllC modular jack for
connection to the Electra Mark11 system, and an
RS232C connector for connection to a modem or a PC.
It also contains 5 switches for proper interface settings;
a green LED to indicate power is available; a hybrid IC
card for interfacing with the system; an 8-bit processor;
a 16KBYTE ROM IC; and associated circuitry.
The RAA-E Unit requires no external power source. It
is powered by the Electra Mark11 system via the
modular jack connection.
The function of the RAA-E Unit is to translate the
Manchester Encoded data (from the ESI-E( ) ETU) to
ASCII signals for use by the PC or modems.
A floppy disk is supplied with the RAA-E Unit. This
disk software is written in one of two formats:
A. CP/M-DOSN 82 Basic (for use with the NEC
PC-8300 or equivalent computer).
OR
B. MS-DOS@ Basic (for use with the NEC APC IV
or equivalent computer).
The CPM-DOS is available in one disk size, 3.5 inches.
The MS-DOS@ is available in one of two disk sizes, 5.25
inches or 3.5 inches.
