2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Model 1004 High Speed, Multipoint Short Range Modem
provides exceptional versatility in a compact package. Requiring no AC power or batteries for operation, the Model 1004 supports asyn­chronous RS-232 data rates to 115.2 Kbps over one or two uncondi­tioned twisted pair. Distances up to 9.4 miles are attainable at lower data rates (19.2 Kbps, 19 AWG twisted pair).
The Model 1004 can handle up to 50 terminal drops in a multipoint polling environment. For RS-485 and serial printer applications requir­ing hardware handshaking, the Model 1004 passes one control signal in each direction. The Model 1004 may be configured for high or low impedance operation, and carrier may be set to “constantly on” or “controlled by RTS”.
Options for twisted pair connection include terminal blocks with strain relief, RJ-11, RJ-45 and dual modular connectors for daisy chain­ing. The surge protected Model 1004S incorporates Silicon Avalanche Diodes which provide 600 watts per wire of protection against harmful data line transient surges.

3.0 CONFIGURATION
The Model 1004 is configured using six PC board mounted switch­es. Figure 1 shows the switch locations, along with the location of the terminal blocks and optional surge protectors:
3.1 SETTING THE DCE/DTE SWITCH
For your convenience, the Model 1004 has an externally accessi­ble DCE/DTE switch (Figure 2). If the device connected to the Model 1004 is a modem or multiplexer (or is wired like one), set the switch to “DTE”. This setting causes the Model 1004 to behave like Data Terminal Equipment and transmit data on pin 2.
If the device connected to the Model 1004 is a PC, terminal or host computer (or is wired like one), set the switch to “DCE”. This set­ting causes the Model 1004 to behave like Data Communications Equipment and transmit data on pin 3.

4.0 INSTALLATION
Once the Model 1004 is properly configured, it is ready to connect to your system. This section tells you how to properly connect the Model 1004 to the twisted pair and RS-232 interfaces, and how to operate the Model 1004.
4.1 TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION
The Model 1004 supports data-only communication between two RS-232 devices at distances to 9.4 miles and data rates to 115.2 Kbps. There are two essential requirements for installing the Model 1004:
1. These units work in
pairs.
Therefore, you must have one Model 1004 at each end of a two twisted pair interface. In multipoint environments, there must be one Model 1004 at the RS-232 host and one at each RS-232 terminal.
2. To function properly, the Model 1004 needs two twisted pairs of metallic wire. These pairs must be
unconditioned
dry metallic wire, between 19 and 26 AWG (the higher number gauges may limit distance). Standard dial-up telephone circuits, or leased cir­cuits that run through signal equalization equipment, are
not
acceptable
.
For your convenience, the Model 1004 is available with several
different twisted pair interfaces: RJ-11 jack, RJ-45 jack, terminal blocks with strain relief and dual modular jacks (for multipoint daisy­chaining).
4.1.1 TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION USING TERMINAL BLOCKS
If your application requires you to connect one or two pairs of bare
wires to the Model 1004, you will need to open the case to access the terminal blocks. The following instructions will tell you how to open the case, connect the bare wires to the terminal blocks and fasten the strain relief collar in place so the wires won't pull loose.
1. You should already have the case open for the configuration
procedure. If not, see Section 3.2.
2. Strip the outer insulation from the twisted pair(s) about one
inch from the end.
7
3. Strip the insulation on each of the twisted pair wires about .25”.
4. In a two pair circuit, connect
one pair
of wires to XMT+ and XMT- (transmit positive and negative) on the terminal block, making careful note of which color is positive and which color is negative.
5. Connect the
other pair
of wires to RCV+ and RCV- (receive positive and negative) on the terminal block, again making careful note of which color is positive and which color is negative.
Ultimately, you will want to construct a two pair crossover cable that
makes a connection with the two Model 1004s as shown below.
6. In a single pair circuit, use
only the transmit (XMT) pair
as
shown below:
7. If there is a shield around the telephone cable, it may be con­nected to “G” on the terminal block. To avoid ground loops, we recom­mend connecting the shield at the computer end only. A ground wire is
not necessary
for proper operation of the Model 1004.

8. When you finish connecting the wires to the terminal block, the
assembly should resemble the diagram below:
9. Place the 2 halves of the strain relief assembly on either side of the telephone wire and press together very lightly. Slide the assem­bly so that it is about 2 inches from the terminal posts and press together firmly. If your cable diameter is too small or too large for our strain relief, please contact our technical support. We have strain relief assemblies to accommodate most cable diameters.

10. Insert the strain relief assembly and wire into the slot in the
bottom half of the modem case. Set it into the recess in the case.
11. BEND the top half of the case as necessary to place it over
the strain relief assembly. Do not snap the case together yet.
12. Insert one captive screw through a saddle washer. Then insert the entire piece through the hole in the DB-25 end of the case. Snap that side of the case closed. Repeat the process for the other side. This completes cable installation.

4.2 WIRING FOR MULTIPOINT CIRCUITS
The Model 1004 supports multi-point applications using either a star or daisy chain topology. Both topologies require special wiring, as well as specific DIP switch settings for master and slave units. Note:
Refer to Section 3.2.2 for multipoint DIP switch settings.
4.2.1 STAR TOPOLOGY
Using a star topology, you may connect several Model 1004s together in a master/slave arrangement. Maximum distance between the units will vary based upon the number of drops, data rate, wire gauge, etc. Call Technical Support for specific distance estimates.

Figure 4 shows how to wire the two-pair cables properly for a Model 1004 star topology. Note that the ground connection is not needed.
4.2.2 DAISY CHAIN TOPOLOGY
Using a daisy chain topology, you may connect several Model 1004s together in a master/slave arrangement. Maximum distance between the units will vary based upon the number of drops, data rate, wire gauge, etc. Call Technical Support for specific distance estimates.
Figure 5 shows how to wire the two-pair cables properly for a Model 1004 daisy chain topology. Note that the ground connection is not needed.
Optional Connection: Dual Modular Jacks
To facilitate daisy chaining, the Model 1004 is available in a “DRJ11” (dual RJ-11) or “DRJ45” (dual RJ-45) version. These units have two specially wired modular jacks for twisted pair connection.

Figure 5. Daisy chain wiring for Model 1004 host and slaves
With the dual modular units, you won't need to build cumbersome “Y” cables for your daisy chain application. Simply use a crossover cable to go between the host and the first slave (see Section 4.1.2 for crossover cable wiring instructions), and straight through cables between the slaves.
4.3 CONNECTION TO THE RS-232 INTERFACE
Once you have properly configured the Model 1004 and connect­ed the twisted pair wires correctly, simply plug the Model 1004 directly into the DB-25 port of the RS-232 device. Remember to insert and tighten the two captive connector screws.
(Note: If you must use a cable to connect the Model 1004 to the RS-232 device, make sure it is a
straight through
cable of the shortest
possible length—we recommend 6 feet or less).
4.4 OPERATING THE MODEL 1004
Once the Model 1004 is properly installed, it should operate trans­parently—as if it were a standard cable connection. Operating power is derived from the RS-232 data and control signals; there is no “ON/OFF” switch. All data signals from the RS-232 and RS-485 inter­faces are passed straight through. Additionally, one hardware flow control signal is passed
in each direction
.
