3 Port SDI Cable Pinouts for NTDK20 SSC Card Needed

[IPOJIM]

Or advice on where to purchase this (NTBK48AA cable). I did find the 9pin pinouts for RS232 single cable but not for my gear. Using it for training. I can see the 48 pin female amphenol connector labeled SELV and also two 9 pins also labeled SELV and P2 (male) and P3 (female) respectively. Any advice on getting this connected to my pc or a Definity Terminal (715GBCS-2 Lucent) would be appreciated. Not sure if I can use the Avaya terminal but it does have many options for emulation. I am fine with Hyperterminal or would get ProComm as suggested elsewhere. Right now though I would be very happy seeing _something_ on a screen! Thanks.

That pinout will get you port 0 from the SSC card which uses the baud rate of the dip switch on the face plate.

Hyperterm 8/N/1 is what we normally see

Thanks for replying. I just tried the above hoping it would happen. No luck. Double checked my cable with continuity and made the 3 connections per your instructions. I used hyper terminal earlier on a system so I know I had the com port right. Tried the 9600 (per dip switch) and 8-N-1 settings plus auto detect and VT100 settings. No text, or random characters on the screen at any time. This is the the SSC card that says (in some posts here)that it defaults to the 48 pin connectors 3 port octopus cord labeled port 0 as the initial serial port. So maybe I need to find the octopus 3 port NTBK48AA cable unfortunately?

Here are some leads on that cable.

Don't forget the "null modem" adapter!!

 

[NTOldTimer]

There is one for $60 on ebay including shipping. This cable is a 9-pin female on the Opt 11 end and breaks out to three 25-pin connectors on the other end. If that pin out above doesn't work I doubt that the cable will help but at least you'll have it. You will also need a 9 to 25 pin standard modem cable if you want to use the 9-pin comm port on your PC and also a null modem adapter.

To use a tty port on the switch you really only need three pins. 2 3 & 7. When converting from 25-pin to the 9-pin, the pin 7 from the 25-pin connector goes to pin 5 on the 9-pin connector. So on the 9-pin it needs 2 3 & 5.

Thanks NTOLdTimer I finally have output on the screen. My issue was the mystery 9 pin cable I rigged up. I toned out one sides pinouts but not the other! The second side had pins 2 and 3 reversed so the color code on one side did not match the color code on the other. It would have worked without messing with it!

Well this option 11 does not have any PCM cards installed so that will probably effect some things. Here is the printout amd it seems to hang at some point when doing the AUD 360 test. Any next steps to bring it to a cursor where I can enter commands and such. New processor board with matching PCM card and files, or pulling some of the boards and starting with a basic system for a few digital phones and a couple analog trunks? One of the digital phone boards does not have a red light, The other DGTL LC do. You get a star for hanging in there and restating your original post forcing me to double check the pinouts - after I made it.

Here is a printout of the session:
