AUTOMATIC OPERATION:

  • During Normal mode, the origin device connected to Port D1 is connected to port COM1; and the device connected to port D2 is connected to port COM2.
  • If the RTS signal is lost from the device connected to D1, the Model 4148 changes to Redundant Fallback mode and automatically broadcasts the data from the D2 device to both destination devices.
  • If the RTS signal is lost from the device connected to D2, the Model 4148 automatically broadcasts the data from the D1 device to both the devices COM1 and COM2.
  • One of the status LED's will be lit steady ON to reflect the connectivity status and signify that the unit is in Automatic Operation.

MANUAL OVERRIDE OPERATION:

  • To override Automatic Operation, the user simply depresses the front panel pushbutton and holds it for 5 seconds and releases.
  • The status LED previously lit steady ON begins to flash representing Manual Override operation. Momentarily depressing and releasing the pushbutton then allows the user to change the switch connectivity.
