3. Before you move the jumper block, note whether the jumper

block is positioned on the Keyboard side or the Serial side. Use
a small flathead screwdriver to loosen the jumper block and
move it to the correct side.

Be sure to press firmly on the

jumper to make sure it is all the way down.

4. Once you have changed the jumper, all that is left is to change

the cable. The PC Keyboard interface requires an F30-1 PC
Splitter Cable. The Serial interface requires one of several
cables, depending on what type of computer you are using. A
PC requires either a F34 25 pin serial cable or the F36 9 pin
serial cable. Check your serial port for its pin configuration. See

Appendix D

:

Cable Pin-outs

for more information on cables

and pin-outs.
