Connect and Condition Craft Interface Terminal (CIT)
Overview: This procedure provides instructions to verify the CIT [a personal
computer (PC) running FT-2000 CIT-PC software] is properly connected, powered,
and has software installed. If you are unfamiliar with the PC, an "Introduction to the

NOTE:
The PC must meet the minimum requirements as stated in the "Craft
Interface Terminal" part of Section 6, "Operations Interfaces."
1. Verify the PC is safely positioned on the PC tray (bay shelf) or safely secured
on a cart or table.

serial male connector on the PC.
• If required, a printer with the appropriate printer cable is connected to the
CIT per the instructions provided with the printer.
• If required, a modem (internal or external) is connected per the instruc-
tions provided with the modem. Many modem configurations exist and
operate over the public switched network or a data communications net-
