by configuring CPU Bd. Switch SW3 and/or ECOM Switch SW1 (COM6/COM9) so that the
100-Ohm termination resistors and biasing networks are installed at the end nodes and are
removed at all other nodes on the network (see Table 2-6).

2.3.3.4 Piggy-back Spread Spectrum Modem (Radio) Port (see Appendix D)
An optional Spread Spectrum Modem (Radio) is available on each Expansion Com-
munications Module (mounted piggy-back) and is assigned port status as follows: COM6 for
ECOM1 and COM10 for ECOM2. There are two unique radios offered. These radios will
only communicate with their own brand of radio, i.e., FreeWave radios are not compatible
with MDS radios. DTE/DCE serial data can be clocked into (transmit) or out of (receive) the
radio at a rate up to 115.2kHz.
These radios are supplied in kit form with all the hardware required for user installation
onto an Expansion Communications Module. Figure 2-14 shows both versions of radios
mounted on the Expansion Comm. Module. Radios are user installed onto the ECOM
Module (see Figure 2-14) and their associated Ports are setup during installation in the
Ports Page of the Flash Configuration Utility. The Flash Configuration Utility is accessed
via NetView or LocalView.
