Step 2.
Plug the male DB-25 connector end of the serial cable
into the “Computer” port of the KAM’98,
Step 3.
Plug the female DB-9 or DB-25 connector end of the
serial cable into a serial port of your computer,
Note:
To use Pacterm 2.0, the communication software that ships with the
KAM’98, you will need to connect to your computer’s COM1 or COM2 port, but
with appropriate communication software, the KAM’98 can connect to any COM
port on a PC compatible computer. Kantronics has programs available for PC com-
patible computers. Programs for other computers may be obtained through your
computer store.
Caution:
Be sure you do
not
connect to a parallel port instead of a serial port: the
KAM’98 communicates serially, so it cannot communicate through a parallel
port. Computer’s parallel ports (i.e., printer, or LPT port) sometimes have female
DB-25 connectors. Do not connect the KAM’98 to a female DB-25 connector on
the computer unless you are sure it is a serial (COM) port, not a parallel
(LPT) port.
Step 4.
Check the connectors at each end of the cable, and se-
cure the connectors using the mounting screws,
Step 5.
Turn ON the power to your computer, in preparation for
installing communication software in the computer, but
leave the KAM’98 power OFF.
Caution
for users of a 25-pin serial modem cable: As originally shipped, the
KAM’98 does not connect a power source to its serial port, but an advanced user
can change jumpers so that it does. If your KAM’98 has been altered to apply 12
Vdc to pin 13 of the computer (serial) port, this can DAMAGE your computer if
pin 13 is wired. To check to see if your KAM’98 has been changed in this way, see
the section on jumpers in this manual. Note that the factory default setting of the
jumper does not connect pin 13.
