OVERVIEW OF THE LAN Master TR16

The LAN Master TR16 sixteen Port Active Media Hub is a standalone,

active retiming concentrator with secondary backup path.

It has 16 lobe ports plus one RI, one RO port and an internal power

supply. The LAN Master TR16 unit supports both 4 and 16 Mbps and

it has per port retiming functions.

IMPORTANT

This product is designed to support an Active Retime environment

with HOT SWAP capability. An active hub can be added or removed

without bringing the network down.

In order to support Hot Swap Capability when connecting to Passive

Hubs (Ex. IBM8228), the following steps must be taken in sequence:

When adding a passive hub to the LAN Master’s RI port:

• Plug in cable between RI and RO of the passive hub

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring In” switch to “Passive” position.

When removing a passive hub from the LAN Master’s RI port:

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring In” switch to ”Active” position

• Disconnect cable between RI and RO of the passive hub.

When adding a passive hub to the LAN Master’s RO port:

• Plug in cable between RO and RI of the passive hub

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring Out” switch to “Passive” position.

When removing a passive hub from the LAN Master’s RO port:

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring Out” switch to ”Active” position

• Disconnect cable between RO and RI of the passive hub.

When connecting LAN Master to external RI/RO IBM-type Data

Connector, through converter:

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring Out” switch to “Passive” position

• Switch the LAN Master “Ring In” switch to “Passive” position

C. Function of LED’s

INSERT/BYPASS LED

Each LAN Master TR16 port has an associated Insert/Bypass LED.

The LED should remain lit if a good twisted pair cable is attached into

a LAN Master TR16 port and the station power is on.

If the LED is not lit, and a station is attached to the port, consider the

following:

• Twisted pair cable pin out wrong

• Twisted pair cable short or open

• NIC card configured improperly.

If no station is attached to the Lobe port, the LED should remain off.

RO NORMAL LED

If connected to another active hub’s RI port:

ON Indicates RO port is functioning properly and cable is good

OFF Indicates fault in RO port, in other hub’s RI port, or in cable.

If no connection to the RO port:

If no station is attached to the RO port, the LED should remain OFF.

If connected to another passive hub’s RI port (Ex: IBM8228) and the

RO switch is in the passive position:

The LED should remain ON if the LAN Master TR16 RO port is

connected to a passive hub’s RI port.

NOTE: When the RO switch is in the passive position, the indicator is

always ON.

RI INSERT LED

If connected to another active hub’s RI port:

ON Indicates RO port is functioning properly and cable is good

OFF Indicates fault in RO port, in other hub’s RI port, or in cable.

If no connection to the RO port:

If no station is attached to the RO port, the LED should remain OFF.

A-1LAN Master TR162-3 LAN Master TR16

E. Replacing the Fuse

If the unit fails to power on, the unit fuse may be open or blown.

Disconnect the power cord from the AC wall socket, then from the

unit.

Warning: Disconnect power before replacing fuse. For continued

protection against risk of fire, replace only with same

type (European) and rating (250V 2A) of fuse.

Install the fuse holder with the proper voltage rating orientation – such

that the rating can be read (lower right corner of fuse holder).

Insert the fuse holder with 100-120 input voltage rating:

Insert the fuse holder with 220-240 input voltage rating:

If the fuse is bad, replace the fuse, close the receptacle, connect the

power cord. If the fuse is good, but the concentrator fails to power

ON, try another power cord and verify that the wall receptacle is

active.

If the unit continues to fail, refer to Section A under “C. Return

Procedure”, contact TRANSITION Networks Technical Support at

(800) 260-1312 or contact your local distributor for the proper

replacement procedure.

Warning: Do NOT, under any circumstances, open and attempt to

repair the LAN Master TR16 unit or power supply. This will

immediately void the warranty.

If connected to another passive hub’s RI port (Ex: IBM8228) and the

RO switch is in the passive position:

The LED should remain ON if the LAN Master TR16 RO port is

connected to a passive hub’s RI port.

NOTE: When RO switch is in passive position, indicator is always ON.

Power LED

A lit LED indicates that the power is on. Note: The LED will go off

momentarily when the reset switch is pressed.

D. Switches

Reset Switch Push-button switch to reset LAN Master TR16.

Ring In (RI) Switch Passive position if TP cable is attached from

the RI on the LAN Master TR16 to the RO on

a passive concentrator.

Active position if TP cable is attached from

the RI on the LAN Master TR16 to the RO on

an active concentrator.

If there is no connection to the RI port, the

RI switch should be in Active position.

Ring Out (RO) Switch Passive position if TP cable is attached from

the RO on the LAN Master TR16 to the RI on

a passive concentrator.

Active position if TP cable is attached from

the RO on the LAN Master TR16 to the RI on

an active concentrator.

If there is no connection to the RO port, the

RO switch should be in Active position.

16/4 Switch Select the data rate (4Mbps or 16Mbps), then

press the reset button.

ZDL Switch Enable automatic speed detection. Default is

ON position. Use OFF only when connecting

non-802.5 compliant test equipment (such as

Hewlet Packard token ring tester).

Installing The Hardware

LAN Master TR163-3 2-4LAN Master TR16

C. Attaching the LAN Master TR16 to Rackmount Frame

The LAN Master TR16 unit is shipped with a set of mounting brackets

attached. The unit can be

mounted in a standard EIA 19”

rackmount. If not needed, the

mounting brackets can be

removed and saved for future

use.

Mount the LAN Master TR16

unit into the rackmount frame.

Rackmount screws are not

provided with the unit. Attach

and tighten the rackmount

screws into the mounting

brackets and threaded holes of

the rackmount.

D. Attaching the Twisted Pair

Cable

The twisted pair cable can be

attached from the LAN Master TR16 to any DTE device. The

maximum cable lengths are summarized in section C, under “Cable

Type”.

Each of the lobe or RJ-45 ports have an associated LED. The LED is

bright when the twisted pair cable connected into the lobe port and

establishes a connection to the remote Token Ring card. If the LED

fails to appear bright, consider the following:

1. The twisted pair connectors on either end are not properly attached

to the ports.

2. The twisted pair cable is shorted or open wire.

3. Software or jumper connection on the concentrator or remote card

is not properly set for passive/active or the network configuration of

4 or 16 Mbps.

4. The concentrator or remote Token Ring workstation is locked-up.

Press the reset switch on the LAN Master TR16 unit and/or reboot

the workstation.

5. The DTE device is not powered on.

INSTALLING THE HARDWARE

A. Installation Considerations

• The AC power outlet (85 to 265 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz) for the

LAN Master TR16 unit is referenced in Appendix D, Technical

Specifications.

• Suitable rack space to mount the MAU for proper ventilation.

• Refer to appendix D for environmental considerations.

• The twisted pair cable should not be located close to any sources of

electrical noise (such as radio transmitters and broadband amplifiers,

motors, high power electrical lines, or fluorescent light fixtures).

• The TP cable does not run in the same conduit with power lines.

• Phone lines should be separated from data cables.

• Do not use flat or "silver satin" wire.

B. Pin Assignments for the Twisted Pair Cable Connector

If the Token Ring adapter card has an RJ-45 port, a straight through

connection between the LAN Master TR16 and adapter card is needed.
