SIEMENSReleasesThis document concerns the serial connection ("F"
interface) to hiT 7070 and 7050 releases
1.02 1.1 2.0
NOTE: Release 1.0 of hiT 7050 does not provide "F" interface
support.
SymptomsIn some cases it is not possible to connect from TNMS-CT
2.0 or higher to Surpass hiT 7070/7050 using the serial line.
Problem Description
Surpass 7050 serial cableThe serial cable used to connect to
Surpass hiT 7050 must have a particular pin assignment. Some
commercially available "null-modem" cables will work and others
will not work, depending on the pin connection of the cable.
WorkaroundUse a serial "null-modem" cable that has only pins 2
and 3 (RX and TX) connected (cross), and pin 5 for ground. All
other pins are not connected, as shown in the diagram below:

There have also been successful tests for serial connection to
hiT using a commercial "Lindy" brand cable.The ordering number from
Lindy for this cable is 31578.
Pins 4 and 9 are not connected. The connections are shown in the

Appendix: Setting up the serial connection.
Procedure from User Manual
Attached the procedure extracted from the TNMS-CT V1.0 User
Manual (UMN) Chapter 3.6.1.
chapter361.doc
If the serial connection in TNMS-CT is already set, check that
it is properly configured by comparing the settings shown in the
user manual in point 7 of chapter 3.6.1 (see the screenshots in the
document attached above).
If the serial connection does not work (fails when trying to
connect), it is also recommendable to check the following:

From the main TNMS-CT menu choose
Configuration -> DCN management
In this window the first item is the Serial Line Server.
Clicking on the server icon displays the four Serial Line Server
Channels that are available in TNMS-CT. hiT 7070 and 7050 are QST
V2 Network Elements.
Here the NE ("QST V2 Serial Line NE") must exist under the QST
V2 Serial Line Channel, as shown in the figure above.
