DESCRIPTION:

The 2300M is a state of the art self healing, counter rotating multi-drop data

modem designed to provide the user with trouble free data transmission in

both ring and string configurations. In addition to being equipped with all of the

expected features,  local and remote diagnostic capabilities are included in

each modem. The user-friendly diagnostics menu can be accessed via two

small buttons located on the front panel. These buttons are used for scrolling

through the  menu functions. The status of any other modem can be viewed

on the SpectraSmart

TM

 System. Field technicians can perform local and

remote diagnostics without the aid of a PC. Parameters viewable on the

LCD display are internal modem temperature, power supply voltages, opti-

cal ring status, location of fiber breaks, unit failures  and many other critical

parameters. If a parameter is exceeded, a flashing light and audible alarm

are activated at all modems. Both primary and secondary rings are moni-

tored simultaneously by the network diagnostics. If the primary ring is bro-

ken, the LCD will display the address of the modems on each side of the

break providing quick trouble free  identification. In the event of a fault, cus-

tomer data will automatically be transferred to the secondary ring.

SpectraSmart

TM

 PC, a windows based GUI driven network management

system can be connected to the Master Primary and Master secondary

modems via an RS-232 or RS-485 cable. When a PC is used, the GUI will

display the entire Network and a change of color at the trouble location. The

SpectraSmart

TM

 software works in conjunction with the LCD display located

on the individual modems. When operating normally the Primary Master

modem monitors quantity and numerical sequence of slave modems on the

ring and each modem stores the last five alarms, which can be displayed on

the local LCD display. The 2300M family combines sophisticated self-heal-

ing ring topology and computer based local and remote diagnostics to pro-

vide your network with round the clock monitoring. The self-healing ring

immediately detects faults and reroutes communications to keep your net-

work operational while the built in diagnostics reduces the time required by

technicians to analyze, locate and repair the fault.

CONFIGURATIONS:

The modems can be installed as a string or counter rotating fault tolerant

rings. The switch selectable feature allows each modem to be set as a Mas-

ter Primary, Master Secondary or a Slave. The Master Primary and Master

Secondary modems are connected to the PC by an RS-232 or RS-485

cable and provide redundancy if Master Primary or the optical ring is bro-

ken.
