Note If the connection is successful, the unit's serial number will be
displayed at the top of the screen. If the connection is not successful or if
there is no instrument attached, then the serial number area will be blank
or will display "99999." If the modem loses its connection, wait at least 1
minute before trying to establish another connection. This allows the
modem to reset itself. ▲

the other instrument.
29. Repeat steps 12 through 27 for the other instrument.

31. Obtain a serial switching device from a commercial manufacturer. It
has been found that devices manufactured by Black Box Corp. work
properly with its instrumentation, although other devices should
function properly. The part number and cost of the device will vary
depending on how many serial devices the user wishes to connect to it.
32. From the serial switching device's instruction manual, determine the
command codes required to trigger activation of each serial port being
used.
33. Unplug the serial cable and its adapter(s) from the modem and then
plug the cable assembly into the serial switching device. Follow the
instructions provided with the serial switching device to connect it to
the instruments and the modem.
34. With the RPComm Connect List screen displayed
select the name of one of the connections used to verify the modem
connection above and then choose the Edit Selected Connection icon.
The Connection Type screen will then be displayed
35. From the Connection Type screen, ensure that the correct instrument
