Chapter 3: Installing or Removing Peripherals
1. Before connecting the device, use the Serial Device Manager to configure the serial
port you will use. From the Toolchest select System > System Manager > Hardware
and Devices > Serial Devices Manager.
2. Connect one end of the serial cable to the serial port (Figure 3-22). Connect the other
end to the serial device, as follows:
• If connecting a console terminal, attach it to serial connector 1 only.
• If connecting a dial and button box, you need to attach a female-to-female
adapter to the serial cable before connecting it to the workstation.
• If connecting a Macintosh compatible MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital
Interface) equipment, you need the Silicon Graphics MIDI converter. To
purchase one, contact your Silicon Graphics service provider.

audio and video devices is the same on an R12000class workstation.
