If the device has a non-standard connector, determine which pins perform the
functions listed in the center column of Table 9 and connect them through to the
appropriate pins of a DB25 connector as listed in the left column.
For best results, use these communications parameters for serial remote control
of the TSG 1001:
TTY or VT100 Terminal Emulation.
Hardware Flow Control
8 Data bits, no Parity, 1 Stop bit.
Local Echo (or "Half Duplex").
For best results, follow these guidelines when sending text to the TSG 1001:
Lines may be up to 256 characters if hardware flow control is in effect.
If hardware flow control is not possible, text should be limited to one
command per line.
End each line, including the last, with a carriage return.
(Optional) Add a line feed to each carriage return sent.
(Optional) Strip the line feed from each line received.
Many existing personal computer communications applications may be used for
serial remote control of the TSG 1001. Because each application has slightly
different capabilities and features, it is impossible to suggest "universal" settings
and parameter choices.
