ICP-2000 Description

The ICP-2000 is a 1RU breakout panel that converts the SCSI type II connection provided from the TM-2000/MTM-2000

communication card(s) into 9-pin D-Sub connections. Each RS-485 communication card on the TM-2000/MTM-2000 has

eight ports provided on the SCSI type II connector. The ICP-2000 breaks these eight ports into individual 9-pin D-sub

connections. There are two SCSI type II connectors on the ICP-2000. These two connectors allow both a primary and

redundant TM-2000/MTM-2000 to be connected. The connectors are wired in parallel, so it does not matter which connector

the primary TM-2000/MTM-2000 and (if present) the redundant TM-2000/MTM2000 are plugged into. The ICP-2000’s

connectors are labelled from left to right J1, J2, J3,....J8. These will correspond from low number to high number or ports

associated with the cable plugged into the ICP-2000. For example, if the cable plugged into the ICP-2000 with port 1-8 on it,

then J1 would be port 1, J2, port 2, up to J8 being port 8. If the cable plugged into an ICP-2000 with ports 9-16 on it, then J1

would be port 9, J2 port 10, up to J8 being port 16. It is important to note that in systems using VDP panels, port 1 is reserved

for connection to the VDP controller and should not be connected to an ADAM or ADAM CS.

Front Panel Features

1. 9-pin female D-sub connector. Each connector is dedicated to an RS-485 communications port carried on the SCSI

type II cable from the TM-2000/MTM-2000.

Rear Panel Features

1. SCSI type II connectors. These are wired in parallel, so it does not matter which connector is used with a

TM-2000/MTM-2000 even in redundant systems. The SCSI type II cables are included with the TM-2000/MTM-

2000 or with an add-on RS-485 port card for the TM-2000/MTM-2000

SWP-2000 Description

The SWP-2000 is a 1RU switch-over panel that provides common connections for TrunkEdit and TrunkSupervisor software

packages (via serial connections to a Windows

based PC), status monitoring of both TM-2000/MTM-2000 units and control

of both TM-2000/MTM-2000 units when used in a redundant configuration.
