Connect Host PSM-8E
CAUTION: The eight RJ-45 connections at the front on the PSM-8E are
divided into two polling groups of four connections each. Polling group
#1 is the set of connections labeled A and B and numbered 0-3. Polling
group #2 is the set of connections labeled C and D and numbered 4-7.
Do not connect more than one 5250 protocol host polling group to a
PSM-8E RJ-45 polling group. Failure to observe this caution will cause
data transfer to fail.
1.
Set configuration switch at back of one (1) host
PSM-8E to host side multiplexer setting.
NOTE: Set associated point-to-point or ring
mode switch in later step (page 8).
2.
Referring to cable specifications on page 14 and to documentation
specific to the AS/400, System 3x, or remote controller, locate or
build appropriate cable for the AS/400, System 3x, or remote
controller site installation.
3.
Referring to documentation specific to the AS/400, System 3x, or
remote controller and referring to the diagrams that follow, connect
the AS/400, System 3x, or remote controller to the host PSM-8E.
AS/400
An AS/400 can be connected to the host PSM-8E either using either
one or more of up to eight (8) shielded twisted-pair cables with
RJ-45 connectors and appropriate baluns OR using a single shielded
DB-25-to-DB-25 cable.
RJ-45 - At Front
At the front of the host PSM-8E, connect an AS/400 using an 8-port
twinax “brick”, appropriate baluns for the RJ-45 pin configuration,
and twisted-pair copper cable with male RJ-45 connectors installed
at both ends.
OPERATION
Use the status LEDs to monitor PSM-8E operation in the network.
PSM-8E INDICATORS
Power
Steady LED indicates PSM-8E is connected
to external AC power.
(Link Status) TX
Flashing LED indicates, for each port,
transmission of data packet(s) on fiber link.
(Link Status) RX
Flashing LED indicates, for each port,
reception of data packet(s) on fiber link and
synchronization of PSM-8E to signal.
RJ-45 INDICATORS
2X
Steady LED indicates, for each port,
detection of 2 Mb/s Express mode signal.
Dark LED indicates, for each port, detection
of 1 Mb/s signal OR of system reset.
Flashing LED indicates, for each port,
reception of data packet(s).
