Operation 2-11
2.3.1 Selecting the Display Device
The SRM console environment variable determines to which display
device (VT-type terminal or VGA monitor) the console display is sent.
The console terminal that displays the SRM user interface can be either a serial
terminal (VT320 or higher, or equivalent) or a VGA monitor.
The SRM console environment variable determines the display device.
• If you use a VT-type device as the console terminal, set the console envi-
ronment variable to serial. The VT device can be connected to the MMJ
port or to the dedicated modem port.
• If you use a VGA monitor as the console terminal, set the console environ-
ment variable to graphics.
You can verify the display device with the SRM show console command and
change the display device with the SRM set console command. If you change
the display device setting, you must reset the system (with the Reset button or
the init command) to put the new setting into effect.
In the following example, the operator displays the current console device (a
graphics device) and then resets it to a serial device. After the system initial-
izes, output will be displayed on the serial terminal.
P00>>> show console
console graphics
P00>>> set console serial
P00>>> init
