8 SHM-B ASYNC 2. Introduction The Short-Haul Modem Model B Async (SHM-B Async) is an asynchronous full-duplex 4-wire line driver/receiver which allows two EIA-232 devices to communicate at distances of up to 4 miles and at data speeds of up to 19,200 bps.
9 SHM-B ASYNC 3. Installation Installation involves three basic steps: four-wire connections; EIA-232 connection; switch settings. 3.1 Four-Wire Connections Figure 1 shows the location of the terminal block on the circuit board. Refer to Figure 2 to make the proper connections between two SHM-B units.
10 SHM-B ASYNC 5. Insert the wires into the terminal strip; tighten the screw terminals. 6. After you have made all four connections, wrap the nylon cable tie (packaged with the SHM-B) around the wires. Pull the tie tight around the wires to secure them to the printed circuit board.
11 SHM-B ASYNC Figure 2. Wiring diagram for two SHM-B units. 3.2 EIA-232 Connection Connect the SHM-B to your computer or terminal with a standard EIA-232 cable and DB25 connectors. Refer to your equipment’s installation manual if you need information on the exact EIA-232 signals required for your equipment.

13 SHM-B ASYNC information concerning its DTE/DCE setting. Table 2 gives the EIA-232 pinning of the SHM-B with the DTE/DCE switch in the DCE position. Table 2.

15 SHM-B ASYNC Because DTR, DSR, RTS, and CTS are tied together internally, dropping any one of these four signals to a negative state will also drop DCD on the remote side to a negative state. DCD will also go LOW if the remote SHM-B is powered down, or if the twisted-pair wire is broken.
16 SHM-B ASYNC 4. Operation After completing the wiring and configuration procedure, slide the printed circuit card back into the case while pulling the data and power cables through the holes in the back panel. The front panel will snap into the front of the case when the printed circuit board has been completely pushed to the back of the case.
17 SHM-B ASYNC When in loopback mode, the switch button indicator will appear to the sender. If a CRT terminal is connected to the SHM-B, typing characters on the keyboard should result in the same characters appearing on the CRT screen. If no characters appear, check your EIA-232 connections and the setting of S1.
18 SHM-B ASYNC 5. Rackmount Installation The SHM-B Async Card is a rack mount unit (ME805-C) that installs in a standard 19-inch panel rack. (You can use the SHM-B Rack [ME810], which can hold up to 16 cards.) The SHM-B Async Card will occupy 5.25 inches of vertical rack space, and is 9 inches deep.
19 SHM-B ASYNC easiest access to the terminals, switches, etc. After a SHM-B Card is wired, it can then be inserted into an open slot in the SHM-B rack. Be certain that the circuit board has mated with the power pins on the SHM-B rack before applying force to fully seat the board ; otherwise you may damage the board and power pins.
20 SHM-B ASYNC 6. T roubleshooting Guide The following information will help you troubleshoot your installation if problems develop. If your particular situation isn’t listed here, call Technical Support for assistance.
21 SHM-B ASYNC printed circuit board is properly inserted and fully seated against the motherboard of the rack. SYMPTOM: No data transfer in one or both directions (to, from, or to-and-from the SHM-B). 1. Monitor the TD LED on the sending-end modem while sending data.
22 SHM-B ASYNC Pins 4, 5, 6, 8, and 20 should all be HIGH to enable communication. 5. If pin 8 (Carrier Detect) is low, this indicates: • a defective transmission line or connection • a defective remote SHM-B • remote SHM-B without power SYMPTOM: TD and RD LEDs indicate data activity, but data communication doesn’t exist.
23 SHM-B ASYNC computing equipment for consistency. 3. Wire the SHM-B units back-to-back, eliminating the twisted-pair; see if you still have errors. • If you do have errors, then test each SHM individually in the following way: loopback one SHM’s Transmit-to-Receive by using two short pieces of wire.
24 SHM-B ASYNC 3. Check the path of your four-wire circuit for potential sources of interference (fluorescent lighting, electrical motors, etc.). Such sources of electrical “noise” can provide an environment in which unwanted signals are induced onto your four-wire circuit.
25 SHM-B ASYNC SYMPTOM: TD or RD indicator is steadily on red with no data attempting to pass (no DTEs attached). Check for reversal of polarity on the four-wire connection.
