RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio communication.
It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing
device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules,
which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case
the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be
necessary to correct the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from
digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of Industry Canada.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites
applicables aux appareils numériques de classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le

SHORT-HAUL MODEM-B SYNC (SHM-B SYNC)
2. Introduction
The Short-Haul Modem-B Sync (SHM-B Sync for short)
is a synchronous full-duplex 4-wire line driver and
receiver that makes it possible for two RS-232-C devices
to communicate across distances up to 5 miles (8 km), at
data rates up to 19,200 bps. In addition to its transmitter
and receiver circuits, the SHM-B Sync also features status
LEDs, a loopback switch, and support for RS-232 clock
and control signals.
The SHM-B Sync is designed to operate with 4-wire
cable. See Appendix A for optimum cable specifications
and supported distances/data rates.
The SHM-B Sync is also designed for maximum
operator safety. There are no voltages greater than
12 VDC or 17 VAC present on the unit’s circuit board.
Opto-isolation circuits protect both the transmit and
receive lines against voltage surges (up to 20 VDC) such
as those caused by lightning.
The SHM-B Sync is available in either a 120-VAC
(ME801A) or 220-VAC (ME801A-E) standalone version
or a card version (ME801-C) that will fit in our ME810
or RM007 card chassis.

CHAPTER 3: Configuration
3. Configuration
Before you install a pair of SHM-B Sync units, you
should set their configuration jumpers as necessary.
CAUTION!
If you have the card version, make very sure that the
SHM-B Sync card is not installed in a powered chassis
when you configure it. If you have the standalone version,
make sure that it is unplugged and is disconnected from
any other devices. No voltages greater than 17 VAC are
ever present on the board even when it is powered, but the
possibility of electric shock should always be avoided.
When you handle the SHM-B Sync’s circuit board, take
every reasonable precaution against damaging the board
with static electricity. At the very least, discharge yourself
by touching a fixed metal surface before handling the
board; if possible, stand on an anti-static mat and wear a
grounding strap or anti-static gloves.
There are two sets of jumper posts mounted on the
SHM-B Sync’s circuit board:
• Six pairs of posts are used to set the SHM-B Sync’s
data rate. They’re at the front of the left-hand side
of the board (the ones labeled “DATA-RATE
SELECTION” in Figure 3-1). The six possible data-
rate settings are 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, and
19,200 bps. The factory-default value is 9600 bps; if
your RS-232 equipment is using one of the other
data rates, set the jumpers in both units accordingly
by moving the jumper to the appropriate pair of
