Using Configuration Utilities

June 1999

Connecting the NIC Serial Configuration Port to a
Console Terminal

The console facility is used for diagnosing and configuring the
NIC. It can also be used for downloading new firmware to the
NIC. The console is accessed from the NIC’s serial port which
has a PC-compatible 9-pin male D-connector.

The following table lists the function of each of the pins in the D-
connector:

The standard 9-pin female to 25-pin male PC cables require a
null modem to connect to most printers or terminals. The cable
must connect input signals such as receive data on the NIC to the
equivalent output signals such as transmit data on the device and
vice-versa.
