CHAPTER 1

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

INTRODUCTION

MICRO-AIDE’s family of Limited Distance Modem (LDM) products can be

used in a variety of data communications applications. The family consists of

the following products.

•LDM-1 standalone - a complete LDM (photographed on the cover page of

this manual).

•LDM-1 plug-in - functionally identical to the standalone version, it is a

printed circuit board (PCB) that is mounted within the LDM-16 nest.

•LDM-16 nest - a 19" rack-mounted chassis that can be equipped with 1 to

16 LDM-1 plug-in PCBs.

The LDM-1 can be thought of as a device for extending RS-232 communica-

tions over great distances (e.g., thousands of feet). It serves as an interface

between the customer’s Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and data communi-

cations network. It is designed to be compatible with four-wire, private line

networks. It can be used to facilitate point-to-point and multi-drop network

configurations. Its unique performance characteristics permit data transmis-

sion and reception over distances of many miles. Additionally, the LDM-1 will

operate over a wide temperature range.

LDM User Manual

The LDM-1 is easy to install and operate. Several self-test modes allow the

user to verify its performance and network segment integrity. Light Emitting

Diode (LED) indicators inform the user of all critical functions.

KEY FEATURES

Listed below are just a few of the features associated with MICRO-AIDE’s

family of LDM products.

• Broad transmission range, up to 25 miles, point-to-point, at 4800Baud.

• Data transparent transmission and asynchronous operation.

• Baud rates from 75 to 19,200.

• Supports multi-drop configurations of up to eight LDM-1s. Transmission

distance and data rate performance are not de-rated by adding drop points.

• Standard DB-25 female connector provides simple cabling to any RS-232

device.

• Easy-to-activate analog and digital loop back test modes.

• Includes transmit channel detector to avoid data transmission collisions.

Data contention can be resolved at the LDM-1, not at the DTE.

• Allows full duplex operation on four wires.

• Compact size, LDM-1 standalone footprint is approximately 5" by 8" and

less than 2lbs. in weight.

• LDM-16 nest can be equipped with 1 to 16 LDM-1 plug-in PCBs for appli-

cations requiring multiple network interfaces at a single location.

ABOUT THIS MANUAL

This document is intended to provide the user with comprehensive, easy-to-

read instructions on how to install, set up, operate and maintain all three

LDM products. Wherever possible, step-by-step instructions are listed. In the

event the user has questions about any of the described procedures the user

should contact MICRO-AIDE for assistance.

The MICRO-AIDE Material Return and Limited Warranty policies can be

found on the inside back cover of this manual.

REVISION LEVEL

This User Manual makes specific reference to Revision D of the LDM-1.

Additionally, this manual is applicable to LDM-1s that have been factory

reworked to the Revision D level. The revision level can be found near the

lower right-hand corner of the LDM-1’s printed circuit board (PCB).

TXDOT APPLICATIONS

The LDM products are frequently used with MICRO-AIDE’s Local Control

Unit (LCU) and other data communications devices throughout the State of

Texas. They have been approved by the Texas Department of Transportation

for use in various highway communications networks. Appendix B includes

information specific to these applications.
