Console Connection and Configuration

The following describes the installation and configuration of the rp7400 system console.

rp7400 RS-232 Local System Console Installation

The following describes how to install a system console on an rp7400 system. The HP-700 series terminal is 
used as an example. Other terminals may be used as a system console as long as they are configured for 
VT100 terminal emulation mode.

1. Connect one end of a serial cable to the port labeled 

Local Console Serial Port

, on the I/O Connector panel, 

at the rear of the rp7400 server.

2. Connect the other end of the serial cable to the serial/RS232 port on the Console. (RS232 Serial Port 

labeling may vary depending on manufacturer.)

3. Connect the System Console to input AC power.

CAUTION

The PDU in the rp7400 cabinet supplies 240 VAC. The HP-700 series is auto-ranging, other 
terminal types may not be.

Do not plug a terminal into the PDU unless you have first made sure that it is autoranging 
and can operate on 240 VAC. Failure to follow this precaution can result in damage to the 
System Console Terminal.

4. Turn the System Console AC power switch to ON.

Console Configuration (VT100 mode)

The following describes the steps required to configure the HP 700 series terminal for VT-100 mode for 
operation with the rp7400 server.
