Configure COM Port for OAI
Either RS-232 port on the System Controller can be used for OAI. If a
modem or administration console is connected to the MCU, it must
use COM port
A
in which case OAI would use COM port
B
. The COM
port on an Expansion Shelf can also be assigned to OAI.
To support OAI, one of the COM (RS-232) ports on the MCU must be
configured as the OAI port via the following procedure.
1.
On the Operator’s Console, select
COM Port Administration
(F10).
2.
Select the COM port to be assigned to OAI and press Enter.
3.
In the sub-menu, select
OAI
, and press Enter.
The selected port is now configured as the OAI port.
Connect the Application Server to the MCU
Using a standard RS-232 cable, connect the System Controller COM
port configured for OAI to the OAI application server, PC, or modem
that will be used to interface with the application.
