About Serial Port Configuration
The SNMP management modules used with the iMediaChassis/20 feature a serial
port that includes an IBM-compatible DB-9 serial connector. To connect an
iMediaChassis/20 to a terminal/computer, use a straight-through (pin-to-pin) cable. (If
the computer/terminal’s port is not compatible with a DB-9 COM port, use the pin
connection chart for reference in making a cable.) Make sure the cable length is less
than 50 feet (15.24 meters). Plug one end of the cable into the DB-9 connector and
the other into the appropriate port on the computer/terminal.
Set the computer/terminal for VT-100 emulation. The serial port on the
computer/terminal should be set for: 38.4K baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no
flow control. The F2 key functions as a Delete key on VT-100 emulators.
