Connecting a Terminal or PC to the Console Port

2-8
The CONSOLE port normally serves as the primary user interface with the
BitStorm 2600 during installation. You can connect a terminal or PC directly to the
CONSOLE port using a DTE cable (see procedure below). You can also use the
CONSOLE port to attach a modem to the BitStorm 2600 for remote dial-in
management of the unit using a DCE cable (see
Console Port on page 2-9).
Procedure
To connect a terminal or PC to the CONSOLE port:
1. Configure the terminal or terminal emulation program to use the following
parameters:
— Maximum speed: 9600 bps
— Data bits: 8
— Parity: None
— Flow Control: None
— Stop bits: 1
2. Determine and procure the proper Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) cable
type. The CONSOLE port requires a DB9 plug connector. The other connector
depends on the serial port on your terminal or PC.
3. Connect the DB9 plug connector to the CONSOLE port socket. The
CONSOLE port is ordinarily used only during installation, so do not fasten the
connector.
4. Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port of your terminal or PC.
