Description
The PC-510 has three options for console devices. You can use the on-
board video with a monitor and a keyboard as your console. You can also
use COM1 as the console or you can run the system without a console
device.

Selecting console devices
The following represent the PC-510’s three options for console devices:
n
Local bus SVGA and a local keyboard. The local bus SVGA can also
drive flat panel displays.
n
Serial console from COM1. A serial cable/null modem adapter plugged
into a host PC running SmartLINK provides both input and output.
The local keyboard also allows input.
n
No console device means no video output, either from the SVGA moni-
tor or the serial console. The local keyboard allows input.
Local bus SVGA
For correct usage of the CRT and flat panel, see the CRTs and flat panels
chapter.
Serial console
If the serial console is enabled and the video BIOSes are disabled, then
COM1 acts as the console device.
Follow these steps to use the serial console:
1. Power off the PC-510.
2. Connect a VTC-20F cable to J7 of the PC-510. Refer to Figure 7-1.
3. Connect P2 (COM1 side of the VTC-20F cable) to the 9-pin null modem
adapter. Refer to Figure 7-2.
