15. At the server's control panel enter a function 65 (you need to take the server to a known state).
Note: You may need to enter a function 25 and 26 in order to have access to the upper functions.
16. The server's control panel may display D1008065 after a little while. Also, in the HyperTerminal
window, you may get some data.
17. At the server's control panel enter a function 66. You may get D1008066. This reference code may not
appear in all cases. Also, in the HyperTerminal window, you may get some data.
18. Using uppercase, type NEGOTIATE 1 in the HyperTerminal window. Press Enter. The
HyperTerminal data window displays 115200.
Note: If nothing is returned, repeat NEGOTIATE 1.
If a speed value is returned, you had data exchanged in both directions and have full connectivity. If
Operations Console will not connect, more than likely you have a setup problem on the client side.
If a speed value was not returned, you might try powering off the PC, power it back on, and repeat
the test. Or attempt to connect the console again. In rare cases the server may need to be IPLed. For
the best results it is recommended you do the following, in sequence:
a. Power off the server.
b. Power off the PC.
c. Power on the PC.
d. Start a connection for the console.
e. Power on the server.
If the above process fails to solve your connection problem, you need to contact your service
provider for further assistance.
