1.2 Connect The Cables

1.

Connect a female SUB D 9 end of the null modem cable (supplied) to the "SERIAL 1" male SUB D 9 serial interface
connector on the RACKMUX (see Fig. 4).

2.

Connect the other end of the null modem cable to a CPU.

Alternatively, use an Ethernet cable to connect to a CPU (see Fig. 5). For direct connection, use a crossover cable (see
pinout on page 46). For connection through a Local Area Network (LAN), use a patch cable wired straight through (pin
1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, etc.).

Note: A serial cable (Figure 4) and Ethernet cable cannot both be connected at the same time.

3.

Connect the VEXT-1.5-MM cable between the
ports labeled "MONITOR" and "VGA".

4.

If connecting a printer, connect
either a serial printer cable to
the remaining male SUB D 9
connector or a parallel printer

cable to the female SUB D 25

connector (see page 3, items

19 & 20).


5.

Connect the IEC power cord to

the IEC connector.
