USERS MANUAL
GENERAL
The GDI Model SM2400 is a Hayes compatible Dial-up modem, designed for plug-in
compatibility with 170 series Traffic Controllers. It is intended to allow, with proper
software support, communication between a 170 and a host computer over standard dial-
up or leased telephone lines. The GDI Model SM2400 includes a modulator, demodulator,
filters, phone line interface, and 170 controller interface. It offers 300/1200/2400 baud
transmission & reception, auto-dial/-answer/-speed detect, and Hayes command set
compatibility, all on a single board with the standard Model 400 form factor.
In addition to all of the features normally found in a Hayes-compatible modem, the GDI
Model SM2400 is fully temperature tested.
FEATURES
- Form factor consistent with the standard Model 400.
- Front edge mounted status indicators.
- Industry standard 'AT' command set.
- Auto-Dial Auto-Answer Auto-speed detect.
- Highly flexible configuration options.
- Fully temperature tested.
- Configuration options stored in NVRAM - no jumpers.
- Call progress monitor speaker.
- May be cable connected to auxiliary ACIA

INSTALLATION
Before installing the Model SM2400, it is necessary to determine if the controller
application software expects to talk to the Smart Modem via ACIA1 (modem slot and C2)
or ACIA2 (C20 only). If the software communicates with the smart modem via ACIA1,
installation consists of simply plugging the modem into the modem slot and connecting
the phone line to the modular jack (LINE). If the softwar talks to the Smart Modem
through ACIA2 (C20), it is necessary to remove the jumper arrangement plugged into J3
(Edge Connector Enable) and supply a cable between C20 and the 9 pin connector of the
modem (J14). One can then plug in the modem and connect the phone line.
If you have completed the steps in the above paragraph and are still experiencing
problems you are encouraged to contact your software supplier and/or GDI. The Model
SM2400 is shipped from the factory in the most commonly used operating configuration
but some software suppliers require different operating options that can be accommodated
by reconfiguring non-volatile RAM.

ADJUSTMENTS
NVRAM
The Model SM2400 is equipped with Non Volatile Random Access Memory. This
memory stores modem operating parameters even when power is off. Two complete User
Profiles and four Dialing Strings may be stored. This eliminates the need for jumper
arrangements while allowing more flexibility. A detailed description of which parameters
are stored in this memory and how to alter its contents is given in the Command Set
section.
Switches
The GDI Model SM2400 has an eight position DIP switch (SW1) that is used to 'strap'
operating parameters. Only positions 1 through 6 are used. The following is a description
of their function.
Switches 1 through 4 - TXn
These switch positions are used to adjust transmit levels. They are preset at the factory
and should NOT be change
user as doing so may cause a violation of FCC regulations and/or compromise
performance. If these switches are inadvertently altered, restore them to: switch 1 ON,
Switches 2,3,4 OFF
Switch 5 - BELL/CCITT
This switch position has been superseded by an enhanced "B" command. It should be left
in the "OFF" condition.
Switch 6 - Dumb/Smart
If switch 6 is OFF the modem will ignore commands and refrain from sending result
codes to the terminal (Dumb mode). To use the dumb mode, first store operating
parameters in NVRAM, then turn switch 6 OFF. At the next power up the modem will
assume the dumb mode. Turn switch 6 ON and power up to reestablish Smart mode.
(factory default ON)
SHIPPING CONFIGURATION
The modem is shipped from GDI in a slightly different configuration than described in the
command &F. This is for compatibility with most 'traffic' software. The differences are:
1200 baud instead of 2400 baud communication rate, and Auto-Answer enabled.
To restore the modem to shipping configuration:
1. Connect to 1200 baud terminal, power off, back on.
2. AT&F <return> fetch factory profile
3. AT&C0&D1 <return> DCD and DTR options
3. ATS0=1 <return> Auto-Answer enabled (first ring)
4. AT&W0 <return> Write current profile to NVRAM

THEORY OF OPERATION
System Description
The Model SM2400 modem is designed to provide the Traffic Industry with the
advantages of a Hayes compatible Dial-up modem, while minimizing limitations imposed
by connecting it to a 170's 6850 Asynchronous Communications Interface Adapter
(ACIA). The 6850 RS-232-C control lines are not sufficient in number to provide
complete control over an off-the-shelf Hayes modem. The 170 communication signal
lines, available at the C2S and/or C2OS connectors, consist of the following:
RS-232 170
NAME DESIGNATION DESIGNATION ORIGIN FUNCTION
TXD BA PIN K (DI) 170 Digital data input
RXD BB PIN L (DO) Modem Digital data output
from modem
CTS CB PIN M (CTS) Modem Flags the 170 that the
modem is ready to
transmit data
RTS CA PIN J (RTS) 170 Signals the modem that
the 170 wants to
transmit
DCD CF PIN H (CD) Modem Flags the 170 that a
carrier signal is being
received
GND AB PIN N (GND) Both Circuit common
An off-the-shelf Hayes modem minimally requires the following additional signal lines to
implement full operation, for which support from a 170 ACIA is not available:
NAME DESIGNATION ORIGIN FUNCTION
DSR CC Modem Indicates that the modem is ready to
transfer data.
DTR CD Host Indicates to modem that host is ready
to communicate.
The Model SM2400 solves this problem by essentially ignoring DTR (See Configuration
Command &D). The factory default for DSR is always on (See &S). Since DSR is not
monitored by the 170, this only becomes an issue when the Model SM2400 is connected
to Data Terminal Equipment.
From a system perspective, the modem has basically three interfaces With the outside
world.
1. Power Supply Edge Connector P1
2. RS-232 Edge Connector P1 or DB-9 J14
3. Phone Line RJ11-C Connector "LINE"
