Connecting the RPSD Lock to the Administration 
Terminal or Printer
You connect the RPSD Lock to the terminal or printer via the Lock’s AUX. PORT 
on the back of the Lock and the RS-232 port on the terminal or printer. See Table 
2-2 for the pinouts for the AUX. PORT connection. You need the following 
hardware components to connect the RPSD Lock to the administration terminal 
or printer:
nRPSD Lock
nAdministration terminal or printer (printer is optional but recommended)
nDB9/DB25 cable
nRS-232 cable with a DB25 connector on one end and the appropriate 
connector for the serial printer or administration terminal on the other end
NOTE:
NOTE:
Install an A/B switch if you are going to connect both a terminal and a 
printer. This  enables the administrator to change equipment without the 
trouble of disconnecting and reconnecting the plugs. Follow the directions 
for connecting a terminal to the AUX. PORT to install the A/B switch.
To connect the RPSD Lock to the administration terminal or printer, follow these 
steps (see Figure 2-4
):
1. Connect the DB9 end of the DB9/DB25 cable supplied with the Lock to the 
AUX. PORT on the back of the RPSD Lock.
2. Connect the DB25 connector of the RS-232 cable to the DB9/DB25 cable 
supplied with the Lock.
3. Connect the other end of the RS-232 cable to the terminal or printer. Be 
sure this end of the RS-232 cable matches the pin descriptions in Ta b l e  
2-2.
NOTE:
NOTE:
If the administration terminal or printer has a DB9 connector on its RS-232 
port, you can use a straight RS-232 cable with DB9 connectors without the 
DB9/DB25 cable.

Powering Up the RPSD Lock
To power the RPSD Lock, you need:
nThe RPSD Lock power supply
nAn AC wall outlet or an available AC outlet on the UPS. (With a System 85 
or DEFINITY Generic 2 communications system, the modem is external to 
the communications system and should also be powered from the UPS.)
Plug the adapter end of the power supply into the 12VDC port on the back of the 
RPSD Lock and the other end into an AC wall outlet or an available outlet on the 
UPS (see Figure 2-10). The red Power LED on the front panel of the Lock goes on 
and remains on, while the other LEDs on the front panel of the Lock should blink 
three times and then settle into a Locked condition.
If there is any failure of the LEDs (for example, they do not blink three times or the 
Power light does not come on), the Lock is defective and must be replaced. See 
Chapter 5 for troubleshooting. A full explanation of the LEDs for both the RPSD 
Lock and Key is in Appendix B, “Front Panel LEDs.”

2. Plug the RJ11 connector on the other end of the telephone line cord into 
the TELCO port on the back of the RPSD Lock.
Connecting the RPSD Key to the Modem
The RPSD Key is connected to the caller’s modem via the SUBSCRIBER port on 
the back of the Key. 
The following components are needed to connect the Key to the caller’s modem:
nRPSD Key
nModem
n7-foot line cord with RJ11 connectors

Power-Up Behavior of Initialized Key
With an initialized Key, the red POWER LED on the front panel of the RPSD Key 
turns on and remains on permanently. The other LEDs on the front panel of the 
RPSD Key should blink three times and then settle into a condition with only the 
IDLE and POWER LEDs lit. If the LEDs do not blink three times or the POWER 
LED does not come on, the Key is defective and must be replaced.
Power-Up Behavior of Uninitialized Key
With an uninitialized Key, the left four LEDs should all light up upon power-up. If 
any other behavior occurs, there is a firmware error and the Key should be 
replaced.
Testing an Uninitialized Key
Test an RPSD Key that has not been initialized by following these steps:
1. Connect either a telephone or a terminal with a modem to the 
SUBSCRIBER port on the back panel of the Key.
2. Dial the associated RPSD Lock, either directly via the telephone or via an 
application on the terminal.
If the connection is good, the yellow VERIFY light comes on first, followed by the 
green CONNECTION light. This should occur in less than 30 seconds. The 
CONNECTION LED remains lit until the call is ended. If the connection fails, the 
red IDLE light comes on.
Initializing the RPSD Lock
Initialization of the RPSD Lock is the responsibility of the RPSD system 
administrator. The technician who installs the Lock tests the system to make sure 
it is running properly but does not set any additional parameters or make any 
changes to the system defaults.
To initialize the RPSD Lock where no additional RPSD Keys are being installed, 
use the:
nDate Set command
nClock Set command
If more than one RPSD Lock is being installed, use the ID Set command to allow 
identification of the Lock when viewing system activity messages. Each Lock’s ID 
will be prepended to each system activity message.
If RPSD Keys are being installed, administer the Lock with the Add User 
command. This step permits the Key to access the Lock. Use the Test User 
command to make sure that the new Key works properly.

The commands and their use are described in “System Administrator Command 
Set” in Chapter 3.
NOTE:
NOTE:
The installer will not have an administration terminal to use for initialization. 
This must be supplied by the customer and must be ready for use when 
initialization takes place.
Auxiliary Port Settings
You must also set the link speed, character length, and parity on whatever 
equipment (administration terminal or printer) you have attached to the Auxiliary 
Port. The default for the AUX. PORT is 9600 bps, 8 bit, no parity. See Chapter 3, 
“RPSD System Administration” for the use of the Set Communications Parameters 
command to change the default settings, if desired, on the RPSD Lock. See 
Chapter 4, “Key Administration and Use” for the Set Communications Parameters 
command to change the default settings, if desired, on the RPSD Key.
Initializing the RPSD Key
Initialization of an RPSD Key involves both the Key and the RPSD Lock. On the 
Lock, you must add the Key User ID in question by using the Add User 
command. See “System Administrator Command Set” in Chapter 3 for the 
procedure for using the Add User command.
On the Key, the following commands are used for initializing the device:
nSet User ID
nSet Secret Key
nSet Device Number
nDate Set
nClock Set
nSet Log ID (optional)
All of these commands must be used when initializing the RPSD Key device. A 
description of the commands and the procedures for their use appear in 
Chapter 4, “Key Administration and Use.”
NOTE:
NOTE:
The installer will not have an administration terminal to use for initialization. 
This must be supplied by the customer and must be ready for use when 
initialization takes place.

Testing the RPSD Lock Installation
The Self-Check tests the health of the RPSD Lock. If the correct response is 
received when the test is run, the RPSD Lock is functioning properly.
Follow these steps to perform the Self-Check:
1. Dial the RMATS channel from a touch-tone telephone.
When the call is answered, you hear a short tone, indicating a connection 
to the RPSD Lock.
2. Press 1 Q on the telephone pad.
If the response is 3 quick tones followed by the RPSD Lock disconnecting, 
the Lock is functioning properly.
3. Have the technical support center call the RMATS channel. If access is 
successful, the installation is working properly. If access is unsuccessful, 
refer to Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting.”
After a successful access of the port has shown the Lock to be working properly, 
try dialing out through the RMATS channel via the Lock. If you have trouble with 
making an outgoing call, the tip and ring leads probably are reversed. Reverse 
the current connection of the tip and ring leads from the central office line to the 
RPSD Lock and dial out again. If a failure occurs, something is wrong with the 
Lock (see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting”), and you must replace it.
If all tests are passed successfully, installation is complete for the technician. 
Lock initialization can now be performed by the RPSD system administrator.
