First, you must use the appropriatephysical connections that allow the PC and terminals to exchange compatible signals. Second you mustselect the correct combination of signaling called logical connections to cause the PC to signal the desiredresponse at the terminals. Terminal Manager supports the physical and logical connection features that youneed, so you can take full advantage of your terminal networkRS-232 ConnectionsAn RS-232 connection, often referred to as a direct connection, is the most basic connection. Youconnect a serial cable between a COM port on your computer and the terminalThere are limits as to when you can use an RS-232 connection. First, you can only use oneterminal. Second, according to the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) RS-232C specification,the distance from the PC to the terminal should not exceed 50 feet or a baud rate, or data172
PayClock Pro Installation and Setup Guidetransmission speed, of 9600. For distances greater than 50 feet, we recommend an RS-485connectionThe Electronics Industries Association represents American manufacturers. The EIA publishesstandards such as EIA RS-232D and RS-485 that govern the electrical characteristics ofconnections between the personal computer and external peripherals such as terminals, printers,and modemsRS-485 ConnectionsFor this connection, an RS-485 converter is connected to one of the computer’s COM ports via anRS-232 connection. You should use the – SWIFT PC converter (Swift 485+) – for PC2000,PC400 or PC100-D terminals. You should use the – SWIFT PC converter (Pro series) – forPC3500 terminals. You can then connect up to 31 terminals in various configurations with amaximum bus-cable length of 4000 ft. A single RS-485 converter can operate in several differentmodes depending on the types of terminals connected to it. Select the appropriate mo del and modeof converter from the Type selection on the General Tab of the Converter Properties window. Youcan also connect Sync Time Devices via RS-485: Digital Wall Clocks, Mini Masters andSonachrons. According to the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) the distance from the PC tothe terminal(s) should not exceed 4000 feet.The Electronics Industries Association represents American manufacturers.

Oncedial up communications is established, the local and remote modems allow the PC and terminalsto communicate as if they are directly connected. The modem connection provides the leastexp ensive alternative for periodic movement of data over long distances for two reasons. First, theconnection works with most voice-grade telephone lines, enabling a PC and an attached modem todial and communicate with a remote terminal through the public telephone system. Second, youdo not have to use a dedicated telephone line to make periodic calls with the computerBecause of the early dominance of the Hayes Smartmodem in the PC community, most modemvendors today include a Hayes-compatible command mode in their products. This command modeenables you to use software designed specifically for the Hayes command set. Besides the Hayesmode, some modems also have a mode specifically designed by the modem manufacturer. Themanufacturer’s own mode often duplicates the Hayes mode, and can provide additionalcapabilities beyond those found in the Hayes mode173
