This warranty is limited to defects in workmanship or materials,
and does not cover customer damage, abuse or unauthorized modifi­cation. If this product fails or does not perform as warranted, your sole
recourse shall be repair or replacement as described above. Under no
condition shall Patton Electronics be liable for any damages incurred

1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE

The Model 1060 generates and uses radio frequency energy, and
if not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and tele­vision reception. The Model 1060 has been tested and found to com­ply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with
the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a
commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interfer­ence will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 1060 does
cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be deter­mined by disconnecting the RS-232 interface, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following meas­ures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re-ori­enting the receiving antenna, and/or plugging the receiving equipment
into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and
receiver are on different branches).

1.2 CE NOTICE

The CE symbol on your Patton Electronics equipment indicates
that it is in compliance with the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
directive and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) of the Union European
(EU). A Certificate of Compliance is available by contacting Technical
Support.

1.3 SERVICE

All warranty and non-warranty repairs must be returned freight pre­paid and insured to Patton Electronics. All returns must have a Return

2.2 DESCRIPTION

The Model 1060 Series asynchronous short range modem is

equipped with a virtual wish list of “bells and whistles”: Point-to-point
or multipoint applications are supported. Two separate control signals
may be passed (one each way), each with switch-selectable pin
assignments. Data lines are protected from ground loops and electri­cally volatile environments by optical isolation and Silicon Avalanche
Diodes. System integrity can be evaluated using two built-in test
modes: local analog loopback and remote analog loopback. Tri-state
LEDs monitor transmit data, receive data and control signals. Finally,
4-wire connections may be made using either RJ-11 jack or terminal
blocks—both are included.

In addition, the Model 1060 is perfect for low power RS-232 envi­ronments. The new Model 1060 is AC powered, and therefore is the
recommended solution for RS-232 environments whose interface volt­ages are below RS-232 specifications. The Model 1060 supports data
rates to 115.2 Kbps and extends RS-232 transmission distances up to
14 miles over two twisted pair.

The Model 1060 is housed in a sturdy metal case and comes with
either 115 or 220V external transformers. This is the top-of-the-line in
asynchronous short range modems.

3.0 CONFIGURATION

The Model 1060 features externally accessible configuration
switches, located on the underside of the unit;there is no need to open
the case to configure the Model 1060. Figure 1 (below) shows the
location of the DIP switch set, as well as the two DCE/DTE switches.

3.1 "QUICK SET-UP" INSTRUCTIONS

In the majority of applications, you won't need an in-depth knowl­edge of the Model 1060's capabilities to get up and running. The fol­lowing "quick set-up" DIP switch configurations cover most Model 1060
operating environments. (Note: DIP switch 8 not used)

3.1.1 POINT-TO-POINT CONFIGURATION

If you are installing these units in a point-to-point application with a
computer, printer or terminal, configure the DIP switches on both
Model 1060s as follows:

Switch Number: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Positions OFF OFF OFF ON ON ON OFF
