This section describes the mounting procedure for the service modem, and a guideline as to how to
connect to a computer.
The service modem mounts on the CPU daughter card. Use the following instructions to mount
the service modem to the CPU card.
1. Attach the metal standoff (524-253) with a nut (322-122) to the CPU card.
2. Secure the modem to the CPU card with the plastic standoffs as shown in Figure 2. At the
same time, connect P4 on the CPU card to P1 on the modem.
3. Attach a ground wire to the service modem above the metal standoff with a
441-002 screw.
4. Connect the ground wire to the backplane of the FACP chassis.
Figure 2. Mounting the Service Modem
An RJ-11 port is provided on the service modem for a standard phone line connection to the PC.
The remote PC must be set up with its own modem for the connection to operate.
The HyperTerminal parameters must be set as follows:
Emulation = VT100/VT220
Baud Rate = 19,200
Data Bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop Bits = 1
Flow Control = None
Modulation Type = Standard
Refer to the corresponding chapter in the ES Panel Programmer’s Manual (574-849) for further
information.
Note: If a DACT is installed, the RJ-11 port can be connected to TELCO line 2 (TB1) on
the house R2/T2 terminals. This eliminates the need for a third phone line.

The FACP can connect to PCs running important utilities, such as diagnostics, programming, CPU
firmware downloading, and channel monitoring. It connects to PCs running all of these utilities
via the service port on the CPU daughter card. When a PC is located remotely from the FACP, the
4100-9832 Service Modem is used.
There are three basic software modes that the service port or service modem can be used to
connect to:
Service and Diagnostics Mode
Data Transfer Interface Mode
Master Bootloader Interface Mode
Each mode is described below.
Service and Diagnostics Mode. The default functionality when a PC is connected to the FACP.
On a PC, this mode provides application startup messages, an ASCII interface to a UI command
set for diagnostics, and event reporting. The PC must be running terminal emulation software.
Connection to a PC is made via serial port or service modem.
