If you have internal options that are not installed, install them now. Refer to Chapter 5, "Installing Options
for the pSeries 650," on page 43, and then return here.

Step 6. Position the Display

If your system will be connected to a graphics display or an ASCII terminal, position the display (or
terminal) at or near its final location. Place the display (or terminal) in a sturdy and stable location.

Step 7. Check Your Display or Console Type

If you are using an ASCII terminal and keyboard as the console for this system, and do not have a
graphics display to connect, continue with "Step 12. Connect the Serial and Parallel Devices" on page 20.
If you are using a graphics display with a keyboard and mouse, continue with "Step 9. Attach the Display
Cable Toroid" on page 18.
If you are connecting to a Hardware Management Console (HMC), continue with "Step 8. Connecting to a
Hardware Management Console (HMC)."

Step 8. Connecting to a Hardware Management Console (HMC)

If the HMC is not installed and functional, see the IBM Hardware Management Console for pSeries
Installation and Operations Guide, order number SA38-0590, for instructions on installing the HMC. Install
the HMC, then return here and continue with this step.
Note: Two HMC connectors, located on the rear of the pSeries 650 processor subsystem, are used to
connect the processor subsystem to the HMC. The connectors are labeled HMC1 and HMC2.
To connect the first HMC to the pSeries 650 processor subsystem, connect a serial cable from a serial
port on the HMC to the HMC1 connector on the rear of the processor subsystem.
Note: If you have a second HMC to connect, connect a second serial cable from a serial port on the
second HMC to the HMC2 connector on the rear of the processor subsystem.
After connecting the HMC, go to "Step 12. Connect the Serial and Parallel Devices" on page 20.
