■ Standby SPE Connection
With duplicated SPEs, there are two SYSAM connectors on each PPN
control carrier (A and B). Either carrier’s connectors may be used. Either
ACTIVE connector always access the active SPE regardless of which
carrier is active. Either STANDBY connector accesses the standby SPE
through the SPE-Down interface. This interface is available when the SPEs
are locked by the SPE-Select switches on a system with duplicated SPEs.
Otherwise the STANDBY connection is inactive. (On a simplex SPE, this
interface is accessed when the SPE is down through the ACTIVE
connector). Separate terminals may be connected to the two connectors,
or one terminal may be switched back and forth between connections.
The unused connectors should be capped.
The SPE-down interface can only be accessed by SYSAM-LCL or SYSAM-RMT
connections. This interface is described in
Initialization and Recovery
.

the 715 BCS. If necessary, terminal settings for serial printer operations can be
