1.1
Connecting the Terminal or PC to the Craft Port
NOTE
References to common, but differing, parameters between the Total Access
3000 and the Total Access 3010, such as number of slots, will be conveyed
by the convention a/b. The “a” represents the Total Access 3000 parameter
and the “b” represents the Total Access 3010 parameter. For example, the
differing number of access slots in the two platforms, 28 for the Total Access
3000 and 22 for the Total Access 3010, would be displayed “28/22.”
1.1.1
Introduction
Total Access 3000/3010 shelf management and provisioning is facilitated by a series
of intuitive menus that are accessible on a computer screen. Connecting either a
VT100 terminal or a PC emulating a VT100 terminal to the craft interface on the SCU
faceplate allows access to the menus and management features of Total Access 3000/
3010. This section in the Installation and Turn-up procedure specifies how to connect
the VT100 terminal or PC to the Total Access SCU.
The front craft access port for the Total Access 3000/3010 shelf is located on the
faceplate of the SCU and is a DB-9 connector. Access can also be made to the Total
Access 3000/3010 shelf from the backplane through the port labeled “ADMIN,” J31/
J18. It is a DB-25 connector, and is located on the upper right corner of the backplane.
NOTE
Connecting to the Total Access 3000/3010 shelf from the front craft port on
the SCU requires a straight serial data cable. Connection to the Total Access
3000/3010 shelf via the rear connector on the backplane requires the use of a
null modem cable, because that port is configured for a modem and expects
to see DCE equipment.

Prerequisite Procedures
An SCU unit must be installed in the Total Access 3000/3010 shelf and the shelf must
be powered for terminal communication to function.
