MAT
The ATM Switch is mainly controlled by commands sent from an external MAT
connected via RS-232C interface.
Any terminal equipped with an RS-232C port and communications capability may
be used as the MAT.
MAT may be connected when necessary or left connected to the ATM Switch.
However, note that the ATM Switch will not automatically display messages on
MAT other than when power is turned on or the ATM Switch is reset.
Also note that RS-232C cross cable for connecting the MAT and communication
software is not supplied with the ATM Switch.
