Chapter 6: Console devices
Description
The XE–800 SBC has three options for console devices. You can use a monitor and
a keyboard as your console. You can use COM1 as the console, or you can run the
system without a console device.
Selecting console devices
The following represent the options on the XE–800 SBC for console devices:

equipment.
