Modem or a Null-Modem Cable to the Management Port" on page 2-6.
Special Considerations
: Because most communications software assumes that
you will be using a modem, if you will be connecting using a null-modem cable, you
need to be certain that your emulation software supports communication with a
device that is directly attached to your workstation. Follow any special instructions
from the application manufacturer concerning configuration steps that may be
required to support communication with a directly attached device.
Communicating Using a Modem
If you will be communicating with the 8237 by means of a modem connection, you
will need to install a second modem and connect it to your computer.
Configure the terminal emulation application as follows:
•
Maximum speed of your modem
•
No parity
•
8 data bits
•
1 stop bit
•
No flow control
•
VT100 emulation
•
The workstation’s communications port that will be used
Establishing a Session with the 8237
To initiate a session using the 8237’s user interface program, perform the following
steps:
1
Either
•
Invoke your emulation software to establish a direct connection by
means of the null-modem cable; or
•
Invoke your emulation software and dial the number of the modem that
is attached to the 8237.
