Problems with the Serial Interface
If you cannot verify RS-232 communication
If the HP E3472A/73A Emulator prompt does not appear in the terminal
emulator window:
Make sure that you have connected the HP E3472A/73A Emulator to the
proper power source and that the power light is lit.
Make sure that you have properly configured the data communications
switches on the HP E3472A/73A Emulator and the data communications
parameters on the host computer. You should also verify that you are
using the correct cable.
The most common type of data communications configuration problem
involves the configuration of the HP E3472A/73A Emulator as a DTE device
instead of as a DCE device. If you are using the wrong type of cable, no
prompt will be displayed.
C a u t i o n
Use the recommended cable. If the cable is not shielded, or if the cable is not
grounded at the serial controller, the HP E3472A/73A Emulator may be
damaged by electrostatic discharge (Recommended cable part number is HP
C2932A).
