  • PS1 and PSA Inverters TN0021: Connecting to Modem Or Direct Connect
    15/10/2008 PS1 and PSA Inverters TN0021: Connecting to modem or direct connect This document describes the methods for configuring modems and cables for use with Remote Link software for PS1 and PSA inverters. Note that while PS1 are commonly displayed or referred to in this document, PSA inverters are handled similarly. To communicate with a modem, the inverter must be configured correctly using either; 1. Dial-up modem, over a phone line 2. Direct cable connection Remote Link is available at http://www.selectronic.com.au/remotelink. To configure an inverter for dial up modem connection: The PS1 or PSA inverter must be connected to a modem. Selectronic currently supplies and supports only the Netcomm AM5698. The modem must first be programmed with specific settings or it will fail to communicate. Programming can be done using the “Program a modem for PS1 use” utility, which comes with the Remote Link software. Attach the modem to be programmed to a COM port on your Windows Computer. Start the utility and select the correct COM port. The default settings are usually suitable for most modems. Click the Write button to program the modem. The utility will write all the settings required and save them in permanent storage. Once the function is complete, close the utility and disconnect the modem. Attach the modem directly to the inverter, using the special RJ45 lead. Turn on the PS1 inverter. Turn on the modem. Verify that the Terminal Ready light is illuminated immediately, and does not go out 2 seconds after power up. Correct connections at the computer’s modem If you are using a laptop which does not have a serial port, you will need a USB to serial adaptor, as displayed below.

  • Practical: 1 Introduction to Computer Hardware
    Usman Ghani 90420305686 PRACTICAL: 1 INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER HARDWARE COMPUTER HARDWARE : Hardware is the term used to describe the tangible parts of your computer system. This includes all of the devices, both internal and external, that connect to your computer so that it can perform all sorts of operations. Central Processing Unit (CPU) The Central Processing Unit (CPU), also called a microprocessor, or simply a processor. It is located on the motherboard and is an integrated circuit that contains millions and millions of transistors and other electrical components. 1 Usman Ghani 90420305686 Functions of the CPU: CPU performs a series of computations to carry out tasks. The Arithmetic/Logic Unit (ALU) is the part of the central processing unit that performs various calculations and comparisons. Some basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Whenever the CPU wants to access a certain piece of data, the address bus will send the address to the memory, and the data bus, will receive the data from the memory. Another of the CPU's basic functions is that it can make certain decisions about how the computer is operated, and based on these decisions, the CPU can jump from one instruction to another. The CPU also has a pipelining technology that allows it to perform many different instructions simultaneously. Parts of the CPU : 1. Control Unit (CU): 2 Usman Ghani 90420305686 The control unit supervises all of the CPU's operations. It fetches the software instructions from the memory, and it also coordinates the times and order in which the instructions are carried out.
