Connecting A Serial Device - Motorola ML910 User Manual

Connecting a Serial Device

Your computer has a serial port for connecting a serial device such as an external
modem.
Follow this procedure to connect a serial device:
1. Plug the device cable to the serial port on the left side of the computer.
2. Turn on the computer.
NOTE:
Portable modems that derive power through the serial port cannot be used with the computer.
Instead, use a modem that is powered by its own internal battery or external AC power.
