Checking Signal Paths
To verify correct signal paths between the server and the system, use the following illustration to locate
the signal paths and check them using an ohmmeter.
Be sure that the RD, TD, RTS, and CTS signals from the server connect to the appropriate signals at the
system serial data port as detailed in this table.
