the side, and pull the control panel out slowly.

system displays C6004031 indicating that it is searching for console. The system might take 20 - 30
minutes to complete this action. If A6005008 is displayed, this means that no console is available.

to LAN.
8. Perform this step if the system is not preinstalled with IBM i. For setting the console type to LAN,
complete the following steps:
a. Set the control panel to manual mode. If the system is in Normal mode (function 01 shows 01 B

2) Select function 26 on the control panel and press Enter.
Note: If you see a FF return code, go back to function 25 and press Enter, then return to
function 26 and press Enter.
c. Check your current setting(s). Use console service functions (65+21+11) to check the current
setting.
