All operations in PC-DBA – Maintenance require a data communications connection with the DX-80 system
to be interrogated. This can be done in two ways; via direct connection to the KSU1 – CPM – PC-DBA port
or via the optional system modem (PN 7249). Once a data communications link has been established, F5-
Cnt (Connect) is possible. This connect operation links PC-DBA to the DX-80 processor for data exchange.
Cable
Connection to the DX-80 system on site is accomplished via the PC serial port (COM Port). Use a straight-
through, 9-pin to 9-pin, Male/Female cable from the PC serial port to the DX-80 CPM – PC-DBA Port.
Once this connection is made, it is possible to connect to the DX-80 system processor for the various
Maintenance operations.
Modem
See F9-Modem below. This connection method can be used while off-site.
