Async T erminal Start-Up
You can use an async terminal to manage a standalone
Model 3610 DSU. When enabled, the async terminal:
• Supports a VT100-compatible terminal interface
• Is set to VT100 with 9.6 kbps data rate,
8 bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity
• Emulates the front panel
The modem needs to be set for the same speed of
9.6 kbps before enabling the async terminal. If you are
accessing the DSU through an external modem, the
modem should have V .42bis/MNP error correction
enabled.
An async terminal is connected to the Model 3610
DSU with a CC-to-DB25 cable. See the Async Terminal
Connection section in Chapter 2 for further information.
Upon delivery, the Term feature is available, but
disabled. Disab is the factory-loaded setting. After the
physical connection is made, async terminal access is
established by enabling the T erm configuration option.
The async terminal cannot be used while the DSU is
executing power -up diagnostics. Device Reset is
displayed on the async terminal screen.
