Connecting the Console Port
The Console port can be used to connect a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC with
terminal emulation software, providing direct access to the asynchronous terminal
interface.
Procedure
To connect the Console port to a terminal or PC:
1. Press the 9-pin connector of a terminal cable onto the Console port socket. If the
terminal will be permanently attached, fasten the connector and fix the cable to the
rail with a cable tie or other strain relief device.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your terminal or PC.
3. Verify that the terminal or emulation software is set to:
— 19200 bps
— 8 data bits
— No parity bit
— 1 stop bit
Any flow control type can be used. See Communication Port Options in the iMarc
SLV Configuration Reference to change these settings.
