2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Model 1000RC Asynchronous Short Range Modem Rack
Card is a dual rack card incorporating two short range modems. Both
units operate full duplex at data rates to 19.2 Kbps over 2 twisted pairs
and support distances to 17 miles. The Model 1000RC features 13
easy-to-read front panel LEDs, which monitor the status of data
transmission. The Model 1000RC also incorporates Silicon Avalanche
Diodes for protection against the damaging effects of nearby lightning
strikes and other harmful transients.
The Model 1000RC uses the latest surface mount technology to
attain high quality short range modem performance in a convenient
rack card. Filling one function card slot on Patton’s Model 1000R16P
rack chassis, the Model 1000RC is available with RJ-11 or RJ-45 rear
interface cards. For workgroup and desktop communications, the
Model 1000RC also fits in Patton’s 2, 4 and 8 slot Cluster Boxes. The
combination of rack mount, Cluster Box and self-powered units
provides a completely integrated Model 1000 “networking” solution.
This section describes the location and orientation of the Model
1000RC's configuration straps, provides detailed instructions on setting
each strap and describes the settings for each of the rear connection
cards.
The Model 1000RC uses two sets of configuration straps. These
straps are accessible when the card is slid out of the rack chassis (see
Figure 1, below). Once configured, the Model 1000RC is designed to
operate transparently, without need for frequent re-configuration: just
set it and forget it!

3.2 FRONT CARD CONFIGURATION
3.3.1 REAR CARD STRAP SETTINGS
The Model 1000RC contains two sets of configuration straps which
allow you to set the function of “Carrier Detect” output. Since the Model
1000RC contains two modems, each unit can be configured separately:
Jumper 1 (JB1) controls Unit A, while Jumper 2 (JB2) controls Unit B.
Each “Carrier Detect” strap can be set to “Normal” or “Always on”.
When operating normally, the “CD” LED will blink to indicate the
presence or absence of the carrier. When set to “Always on”, the “CD”
LED will always indicate that the carrier is “ON”. Figure 3 (below)
summarizes the switch settings.

4.0 INSTALLATION
This section describes the functions of the Model 1000R16P rack
chassis, tells how to install front and rear Model 1000RC cards into the
chassis and provides diagrams for wiring up the interface connections
correctly.
4.1 THE MODEL 1000R16P RACK CHASSIS
SGND & FRGND (JB5)
In position 1&2, this strap links signal ground and frame ground
through a 100 Ohm, 1/2 W resistor. In position 2&3, pin 1 is “not
connected to frame ground.
JB5
Position 1&2 = SGND and FRGND Connected
Position 2&3 = SGND and FRGND Not Connected
DTE as DSR or RI (JB6 & JB7)
Because the Model 1000RC uses DSR (but not RI), only position
1&2 is valid when this rear card is used with the Model 1000RC.
Position 1&2 causes the terminal (DTE) to see DSR when the Model
1000RC is powered up properly. Position 2&3 is for Ring Indicate,
which is non-functional on the Model 1000RC. Furthermore, use of
position 2&3 will cause DSR to float, which will lead to improper
operation of the Model 1000RC.
JB6 & JB7
Position 1&2 = DSR
Position 2&3 = (Ring Indicate) Not Valid for Model 1000RC
The Model 1000R16P Rack Chassis (Figure 7) has sixteen short
range modem card slots, plus its own power supply. Measuring only
3.5” high, the Model 1000R16P is designed to occupy only 2U in a 19”
rack. Sturdy front handles allow the Model 1000R16P to be extracted
and transported conveniently.
Figure 7. Model 1000R16P Rack Chassis with power supply
4.1.1 THE RACK POWER SUPPLY
The power supply included in the Model 1000R16P rack uses the
same mid-plane architecture as the modem cards. The front card of
the power supply slides in from the front, and the rear card slides in
from the rear. They plug into one another in the middle of the rack.
The front card is then secured by thumb screws and the rear card by
conventional metal screws.
WARNING! There are no user-serviceable parts in the
power supply section of the Model 1000RC. Voltage
setting changes and fuse replacement should only be
performed by qualified service personnel. Contact Patton
Electronics Technical support at (301)975-1007 for more
information.

Switching the Power Supply On and Off
The power switch is located on the front panel. When plugged in
and switched on, a red front panel LED will glow. Since the Model
1000R16P is a “hot swappable” rack,
to be installed before switching on the power supply
it is not necessary for any cards
. The power supply
may be switched off at any time without harming the installed cards.
The Model 1000RC is wired as a DCE (Data Communications
Equipment). Therefore, it wants to connect to a DTE (Data Termination
Equipment). If your RS-232 output device is a DTE, you may need to
use a special cable (such as a DB-25 to modular cable). If your
RS-232 output device is DCE, you will require a null modem
connection. Call Patton Technical Support at (301) 975-1007 for
specific installation instructions.
4.2 INSTALLING THE MODEL 1000RC INTO THE CHASSIS
The Model 1000RC is comprised of a front card and a rear card.
The two cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each other by
way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following steps as
a guideline for installing each Model 1000RC into the Model 1000R16P
rack chassis:
1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal
rails.
2. Secure the rear card using the metal screws provided.
3. Slide the front card into the front of the chassis. It should meet the
rear card when it's almost all the way into the chassis.
gently
4. Push the front card
into the card-edge receptacle of the rear
card. It should “click” into place.
5. Secure the front card using the thumb screws.
Note: Since the Model 1000R16P chassis allows “hot swapping”
of cards, it is not necessary to power down the rack when you
install or remove a Model 1000RC.
4.3 RS-232 CONNECTION
The RS-232 ports are always the
lower
ports on the interface card.
The 10-pin RJ-45 is pinned according Patton's Modified Modular
Interface Standard (based on the EIA/TIA-561Standard). For specific
interface pin-outs, please refer to the diagrams in Appendix D.
Notice! Any terminal cable connected to the Model
1000RC must be shielded cable, and the outer shield must
be 360 degree bonded–at both ends–to a metal or
metalized backshell.
4.4 TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION
The Model 1000RC operates full duplex over two twisted pair.
In
all
applications, the twisted pair wire must be 26 AWG or thicker,
unconditioned, dry, metallic wire. Both shielded and unshielded wire
are satisfactory. Note: The Model 1000RC can only be installed on
private twisted pair cable. Dial-up analog circuits, such as those used
with a standard Hayes-type modem, are
not acceptable.
For further
information about acceptable wire grades, please refer to the diagrams
in Appendix B.
Notice! Any modular twisted pair cable connected to
the Model 1000RC must be shielded cable, and the outer
shield must be properly terminated to a shielded modular
plug on both ends of the cable.
4.4.1 POINT-TO-POINT TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION
The 6-position RJ-11 and 8-position RJ-45 jack options for the
Model 1000RC–always the
prewired for a standard TELCO wiring environment (See Appendix D
for pin number orientations). Connection of a 4-wire twisted pair circuit
between two or more Model 1000RCs requires a

• The green “PWR” LED glows when power is being applied to the
modem card through its mid-plane chassis connection.
• The “TD” and “RD” indicators blink red and green to show data
activity. A solid red light indicates an idle state. Solid green is an
“illegal” condition and typically indicates a problem in the system.
• If your carrier detect strap is configured as “Always On”, the “CD”
light will always be green. If the carrier detect strap is set to
“Normal”, the green LED lights when the receive carrier is detected;
the red LED lights when the receive carrier is absent.
5.2 POWER-UP
There is no power switch on the Model 1000RC: Power is
automatically applied to the 1000RC when its card-edge connector
touches the chassis’ mid-plane socket, or when the chassis’ power is
turned on.
Note: The 1000RC is a “hot swappable” card—it will not be
damaged by plugging it in or removing it while the rack is powered up.
