Model 914 Diagnostic GUI

The 914-HDE has advanced diagnostics available over a dedicated RS-232 port on the console 914-HDE. This
one port gives access to all 914 cards in the 914-HDE stack. This diagnostic link is critical during the setup
phase of any system, as it gives access to the settings of any port in the system. This is useful to configure
serial port protocols, Ethernet negotiation settings, and any special video settings, for example.
Included with every 914-HDE Console PCBA is a pigtailed jumper for the RS-232 diagnostic port, as shown in
the figure below. This cable plugs into J8 on the 914-HDE PCBA. To install the cable, the plug is pressed down
into the connector.
