Step 12. Connect the Serial Devices, Parallel Devices, and ASCII
Terminal
Notes:
1. Before doing this step, read and understand “Step 3. Read the Safety Notices” on page 3.
2. To connect a local ASCII terminal, connect the terminal to the rear serial port by using the 9-pin to
25-pin serial converter cable. The 9-pin to 25-pin serial converter is a customer-purchased option.
3. If you have a remote ASCII terminal, connect it through an external modem to serial connector S1, and
connect a local ASCII terminal to serial connector S2 or serial connector S3.
If you have a local ASCII terminal or a single serial device, connect it to serial connector S1.
You can connect additional serial devices to the two remaining serial ports (S2 and S3) that are located at
the rear of the system.
If you have a parallel device (such as a printer), connect it to the parallel connector.
