Configurations The Vanguard 650 Series currently comes in four hardware configurations:
• 651 - Data only without internal modem or battery. This model comes with 2 serial ports and one ISDN U interface port.
• 652 -Data and Plain Old Telephone System (POTS). This model comes with (or without) battery backup, an internal modem, and is equipped with 2 serial ports, 2 POTS ports, and one ISDN U interface port.
• 653 - Data only without internal modem or battery. This model comes with 2 serial ports and one ISDN S/T Interface port.
• 654 - Data and Plain Old Telephone System (POTS). This model comes with (or without) battery backup, an internal modem, and is equipped with 2 serial ports, 2 POTS ports, and one ISDN S/T interface port.
What Is the 650? Unlike a traditional ISDN Terminal Adaptor, the Vanguard 650 Series is known as an
ISDN PAD (Packet Assembler/Disassembler). Although it has the same functionality as standard TA’s for POTS support, it handles data differently. The 650 product has an internal X.25 switching PAD, and can route data traffic across the ISDN D packet channel. As a result, multiple applications can be supported on a single ISDN basic rate (2B+D) link while freeing up the two B channels for true voice, modem, or fax calls.
Supported Protocols
The Vanguard 650 Series of products provides full support for protocols such as SDLC, Bisync, Burroughs Poll Select, 2260, ALC, and 3201. (See the Software Advisory Notice for the currently shipping software release for a full list of supported protocols and features.) This product also provides support for local termination (Poll Spoofing), and switching.

Vanguard 650 Series Features

Vanguard 650 Series Features
Standard Features These products offer the following standard features:
• Small profile
• U or S/T ISDN Interfaces
• Full X.25 PAD and Switch support
• SNMP management and Telnet/X.28 control port support
CTP Data Port 2, a DB25 connector configured as a DCE interface, is used as the CTP for
configuration, reporting, and troubleshooting the 650 Series. To access the CTP you must configure your terminal emulation software to VT100, 9600 bps, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit.
ISDN Service The Vanguard 650 Series provides an Integrated Service Digital Network Basic Rate
Interface (ISDN BRI) which, via a connector that supports both RJ11 (ISDN U) and RJ45 (ISDN S/T), offers access to ISDN networks. A substantial set of protocols are supported over ISDN.
Multiprotocol Support
Software Download Chapter 3, Installing and Coldloading 650 Series Software, provides complete
RFC 877 RFC 877 encapsulation of IP datagrams over an X.25 network allows for
Support includes SDLC, Bisync, X.25, Async, IP/IPX, and PPP, as well as many other serial protocols. Refer to the Software Release Notice which accompanied your unit for a complete listing of protocols supported by the Vanguard 650 Series.

Sample Network Topology

Sample Network Topology
Introduction Figure 1-2 shows a sample network topology for the Vanguard 650 Series. This
example, depicting a State Lottery network, shows the connection for the DMS-100 ISDN switch. The example assumes that the Lottery Terminal has a 202T four-wire interface communicating at 1800 or 2400 bps. If the interface required is V.24, then you would configure Port 3 and set the soft switch parameter in the Node Record to a value of NONE.
Note
Note that the remote 650D does not initiate calls in this example.

652/654 POTS With/Without Battery Backup

652/654 With POTS Support

Introduction The 652 and 654 offer the added feature of North American POTS (Plain Old
Telephone System) support via 2 POTS port (RJ11) connections. This means your Vanguard 650 Series can handle both voice and data requirements from a single unit.
Types of Equipment Supported
POTS Support Guidelines
You can connect the following equipment to 652/654 POTS ports:
• Standard DTMF
• Answering machine
• Modem
• Group 3 Facsimile machine
• The 652/654 supports only good quality telephone equipment. Contact your local Vanguard sales representative for details on supported equipment.
• 652/654 POTS ports are intended for use with telephone equipment only. 652 POTS ports are not intended to drive existing house wiring for telephone service. They are intended for use with standard desktop telephone equipment, and should not be connected to publicly regulated analog lines.
• Each 652/654 POTS port supports a Ringer Equivalence (REN) of two. This means the total REN of telephone equipment connected to each port cannot exceed two. Standard telephone lines have a REN close to one. Modems, facsimile machines, and main powered telephones may have a REN of 0.2. Therefore, you can connect from two to four devices to each POTS port, depending on the type of telephone equipment you are operating.
• Each POTS port is connected to the other. The main line, marked as such on the backplane, is connected between pins 3 and 4, while the second line is connected between pins 2 and 5. This arrangement enables the connection of a two-line telephone or an extension of both ports with a single four-wire cable.
Note
Some modems and telephones may use pins 2 and 5 for purposes other than connecting to a second line. Make sure the telephone equipment connected to the POTS port is a two-lead cable.

652/654 POTS With/Without Battery Backup

652/654 With POTs and Battery Backup

Rechargeable Battery Pack
Operation On Battery Backup
Recharging Battery Pack
Replacing Batteries
The 652 and 654 devices are also available with a 12 volt rechargeable battery backup pack. This pack consists of ten 1.2 volt NiCd battery cells in a metal carrier. This enables these units to support POTS and ISDN operation during power failures, for approximately 2.5 hours of normal telephone use. If both POTS ports are in continuous use during battery operation, the useful time drops to approximately 1.5 hours. Battery operating time (capacity) is also dependent on the temperature; battery capacity decreases as temperature increases.
To reduce power consumption, during battery operation, the data and modem ports will not operate. When the battery is in operation, the power LED flashes.
The electric power plug, which connects to the external wall-mounted power supply, acts as a battery switch. When the power supply transformer is plugged in, the battery is connected to the circuit, and vice versa.
A completely discharged battery pack takes about 14 to 16 hours to fully recharge. The charging circuit activates every time the unit powers up. After 16 hours of operation, the charging circuit reduces the current to the batteries to a trickle charge level to prevent overcharging.
The batteries are shrink wrapped around a metal carrier, installed inside the unit on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). A pair of wires connects the battery pack to a connector on the PCB. The connector is keyed to prevent inserting the connector the wrong way and reversing the order of the battery pack.
To replace the battery, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Remove the unit’s cover.
2 Remove the battery connection from the PCB.
3 Remove the screws on the bottom of unit that hold the battery pack in
place.
4 Remove the battery pack.
5 Install a new battery pack by performing these steps in the reverse
order.
Battery Disposal Please contact the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), at one of
the following telephone numbers, for specific information on the safe disposal and/or recycling of rechargeable batteries.
• Individual Household Batteries:1-800-822-8837
• Retailers Disposal:1-770-984-0708

652/654 POTS With/Without Battery Backup
Storing the 652 With Battery Backup
Note to Users of Other Network Access Products
When storing the 652 or 654, disconnect the power cord from the unit and the electrical outlet. The power cord acts as a battery switch. As long as the power cord is connected to the unit, the battery is connected to this circuit. Remove the plug from the unit to disconnect the battery from the circuit.
There are a number of significant differences between the operation and functionality of 650 Series products and other Network Access products in the 65xx and Vanguard lines. These differences include the following:
• Operating software is divided into two distinct segments: base software and option images. This is discussed in detail in Chapter 3, Installing and Cold­loading 650 Series Software.
• TFTP functionality is partially enabled by Software Access Key (SAK). The SAK’d portion is the ability to perform a base software download via remote TFTP server.
• Flash-to-flash transfer is not operational on a 650 Series products.
• The system clock resets to a default value after a power failure.
