Setting Up the UNIX PC
For information on setting up an expansion port, see
"Setting Up Expansion Ports" in this chapter.
Before you can use the RS-232 port, you must:
o Make the physical connection using a cable
with RS-232 connectors.
o Set up (configure) your system to recognize
the type of connection you are making.
Refer to the appropriate equipment operator's manual
for cable connections. A null modem (or crossed
send/receive) cable is required when you are connecting
two pieces of equipment (such as two UNIX PCs or a
terminal and a UNIX PC) without an external modem. For
more information on null modem cables, see Appendix D.
