Serial connectors

Your server has two standard serial connectors: Serial connector A and Serial
connector B.

Some application programs require specific connectors, and some modems function
properly only at certain communication connector addresses. You might need to use
the Configuration/Setup Utility program to change communication connector
address assignments to prevent or resolve address conflicts.

Viewing or changing the serial-connector assignments:

Complete the following

steps to view or change the serial-connector assignments:

1.

Restart the server and watch the monitor screen.

2.

When the message Press F1 for Configuration/Setup appears, press F1.
