SX200 SMDR Port

I have a 6 conductor line cord connected to a DB25 to the SX200 SMDR port.
I need to make a female DB9 to connect to a PC for Call Accounting.
my question is....on the DB9 connector which pins do I solder on from the 6 conductor to work.


thanks
 
well from the basement phone room, where the superswitch resides, from the back on the SMDR port there is a DB25 connector with a 6 coductor plugged into it which intern goes to a jack then crossconnected on the field and channelled to upstairs reception desk where it is terminated onto a 6 conductor Jack.
So from that jack I have a 6 conductor line cord going to connect to the com1 port of a PC. So I have to cut that end of the cord and solder it to a DB9 female which will connect to the Com port.
So I was wondering on the DB9 connector to the PC what do I solder on to that?
On the 6 conductor there is, red,green,black,yellow,white,blue.
My question is where in the 9 pin pinout do these connect to?

thanks for your time.
 
ok then why not an 1103 dataset?. do you have the edocs for your system because the answer to the pinouts is there you can get field programable db 9's to rj 45's and then run a regular cat 5 or six from the switch to computer!
 
Hope this helps.

Table: Maintenance Terminal and Printer Ports
Pin Signal
1 DTR *
2 RXD
3 TXD
4 DTR *
5 GND
6 DSR *
7 RTS **
8 CTS **
9 nc

Note: The RS-232 ports (Maintenance, Printer, J10, J11) are all configured as DTE type. All backplane connections use DB-9 connectors. The pins with * and ** are connected together on PRI maintenance ports (slots 10 and 11).

This is out of the Mitel Folio Docs.

I would get two RJ45 to DB9 adaptors. You can get the style where you do not have to solder. Make both pin out the same. I think that you only really need the pins that are used for transmit as the SX-200 just outputs data from the printer port, it doesnt need to receive data.

Good Luck


 
yeah if you are talking about a 200 analog pins 2 3 and frame ground and they go to 3 and 2
 
Better than that, why not a pair of old Dataset-1 and Dataset-2?
You can occasionally still find these on the secondary mkt dirt cheap and they work swell across a single pair of wires.
I've used them for years; you need a DS1 at one end and a DS2 at the other; no config needed, they autobaud and work up to 19.2k bps asynch as far away as 1500 ft (prob more).
Just remember, they hook up using the 2nd pair of the jack (yel/black) not the red/grn - lotsa green techs bitten by this.
Data i/o is via the old DB25 connector, all you need is pins 2-3-7 and strap rts/cts/dtr high.
 
Will the datasets work with a SX200 analog switch?
On the back of the superswitch in the cabinet there is the SMDR board with a DB25 female on board.
Is the connection just a serial to serial? or is it straight to null? modem type cable?
Or will the datasets work?How is the datasets connect on both ends.

thanks, and sorry for all the questions.
 
The old Dataset-1 and Dataset-2 will work on any RS-232 asynchronous data interface from 300 to 19,200 bps, including the SMDR output port on any sx200 or sx2000 ever manufactured.

Now here's where my recollection is fuzzy.
Whether the SMDR data port is a DCE or DTE device I honestly don't recall.
However, armed with an RS-232 breakout box it should be something you can figure out.
If it is DCE you will need a null modem cable between the SMDR output port and the dataset.
I do remember quite specifically that you will need to force RTS high.
In fact on the dataset I strap all the flow control and carrier detect leads high (RTS, CTS, DCD, DTR) then use Xon/Xoff for flow control out of the PBX.
That way you only need, at most, 3 wires between the PBX and dataset (Send data, Receive Data and Ground).

I've never used an 1100-series dataset so I can't help you there.
