CRAFT Port
The CRAFT port (EIA-232) on the rear panel connects to a computer or modem and provides the following
functions:
• Accepts EIA-232 input from a PC or a modem for controlling the Total Access 600 Series.
• Baud rate is user-configurable.
• Acts as input for either VT100 or PC control.
• Acts as an interface for flash memory software downloads using XMODEM.
Table 7 shows the CRAFT port pinout.
A DB-9 to RJ-48 adapter is needed to connect a PC or VT100 terminal to the
CRAFT port. This adapter is
not part of the Total Access 600 Series shipment. You may obtain a free adapter (P/N 3196ADPT001) by
contacting ADTRAN Technical Support or by adding the adapter to the system order. You can also build
your own adapter by purchasing unassembled adapter kits from Black Box or Datacomm Warehouse (or
other equivalent companies). The adapter pinout is shown in Table 8.
