Site Considerations
The HP 3000 9X8LX/RX family of computers are office environment computer systems that
do not require special environmental controls. For this reason, no specific site preparation is
required before the system is installed. Even though the computer does not require any site
preparation, there are some site considerations and responsibilities that need to be addressed.
This chapter provides the environmental and electrical specifications for the HP 3000
9X8LX/RX systems. These specifications are provided to ensure the installation site is within
the limits for the system. This chapter also lists the HP organizations and services available
for site preparation for the HP 3000 9X8LX/RX family computers. It also lists and describes
the responsibilities of the customer.
Site Preparation Considerations
The HP 3000 Series 9X8LX/RX computers are primarily designed to be used in commercial
office environments. Except for verifying the environment and AC power, very little site
preparation is required. When the computer is configured into a larger system employing
numerous peripherals and mass storage devices, you should study and become more familiar
with the contents of this chapter.
The CE or Site Preparation Specialist provides peripheral equipment power and
environmental specifications contained in the
3000 and HP 9000 CE Handbook.
It is the customers responsibility to ensure that the facility conditions are maintained in
accordance with the information and specifications contained in this chapter.
This allows Hewlett-Packard to provide support services in accordance with the
Support Services Agreement.
Physical Considerations
Since the HP 3000 9X8LX/RX is a small physical package (refer to physical specs Table 2-5 it can be located next to a desk or placed in a dedicated computer room. Allow room for cables and access to the front and rear of the computer cabinet.
Be sure to allow for the peripheral equipment that comes with a computer system, such as peripheral cabinets, PowerTrust UPS, terminals, printers and other supporting equipment. Also allow for computer materials storage.

Remote Support Modem Configuration
This section contains information for connecting specificmodems to the RP 30009XSLX/RX Family Computer System. This section also discussesthe signal line behavior of the Multifunction I/O modem interface to aid in configuringmodems that are not listed.
General rules for configuringmodems:
The modem must be set up to respond to DTR.
CTS should follow RTS.
DSR must follow OR, not DCD.
For Bell mode, the modem should disregard RTS.
Set both local and remote modems to either: o the same compression mode, OR
o to NO data compression.
If problems occur connecting two modems, usually the fault is that one is enabled for some MNP level and the other modem is set for no data compression.
If the modem sends up-modem dialog with all of the signals asserted, it is possible for the user to be logged offimmediately when a password is enabled for the Access Port. This can be corrected by setting the modem so it does not report connection status via the data path.
Note
V.22bis/V.25bis modes are not supported on the A1703-60003or A1703-60022 Multifunction I/O interfaces.

The version of the modem has a problem when dialing with V.25bis where if the number that is dialed is busy, DSR does not drop. This same problem causes V.25bis error indications to be improperly decoded, meaning that the modem time-out timer must expire before we know that the attempt failed. This also means that multiple dialing attempt will always fail. If the DSR

CCITT Mode AP protocol 0
This protocol is known as HP-UX CCITT. The card waits for RI before raising DTR. It
also raises RTS when it raises DTR. If DSR does not come up within 25 seconds, DTR goes back down. The connection also depends on CTS and DCD. DCD can drop for up to 400ms before the connection will drop. CTS must stay high always. Once CTS drops, the connection
starts to drop. A new connection cannot occur until DSR, DCD and CTS all drop. FS can be programmed to either state via the
Bell Mode AP protocol 1
This is sometimes called Bell simple protocol. It raises DTR when it can accept a connection.
The connection is valid when it sees DCD. It drives RTS whatever it was when Remote is
enabled (usually, RTS is low) and does not look at DSR or CTS. When a disconnect is done,
DCD must drop before a new connection can be made (i.e. it will not raise DTR until DCD
drops).

connection is established when DSR is high. CTS can drop for an indefinite amount of time
without dropping the connection. The card will not send data to the modem when CTS is low. DCD can drop for up to 400ms before the connection is dropped. Once the connection is dropped, DSR, DCD and CTS must all go low before a new connection can be made. RS
controls what speed the card sends to the modem. If RS is high, the programmed baud rate is
used. If RS is low, half of the programmed baud rate is used. If you use the 92219Q cable, the
baud rate will most certainly be half the programmed baud rate, since
be down. FS can be programmed to either state via the
is
raised whenever a connection is allowed. RTS follows DSR. A
RI
will almost always
CA
command.
