Strapping the DIM Site Daughtercard
Overview
This section describes how to strap the DIM Site daughtercard.
Strapping the DIM Daughtercard
The strapping on the DIM daughtercard typically comes configured from the
factory in Ring Indicator mode, which causes pin 22 on the DB25 connector to
indicate the presence of an incoming call to the attached DTE. Otherwise, the
strap is set to Test Mode (see Figures 4-11 and 4-12).
