Connecting to a Maintenance Terminal

A miniature, 3-pin, 210 Bantam-type jack on the front panel serves as a craft port and allows connection between
the HiGain Line Unit and a maintenance terminal (ASCII terminal or PC running a terminal emulation program).
A 210-to-DB-9 adapter is provided with every unit to facilitate the use of standard RS-232, DB-9 cables (see
Figure 29 on page 51). Once connected to a maintenance terminal, you can access the maintenance, provisioning,
and performance screens.
To connect to a maintenance terminal:
1 Insert the 210-to-DB9 adapter into the RS-232 jack on H2TU-C-388 front panel.
2 Connect an RS-232 cable to the adapter.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port on the maintenance terminal.
4 Start a terminal emulation program such as ProComm (emulating a VT100 terminal).
