2. GETTING STARTED

Introduction

This chapter covers basic configuration topics. Included is information on setting up the TERMINAL to control the SERIMUX.

1.Using the instruction under “Setup The Terminal” below (or more detailed instruction on page 31), setup the TERMINAL to make connection to the SERIMUX. Configure the terminal as follows:

•Ethernet Mode set to OFF (F4 menu)

•Baud rate at 9600 bps (F4 menu)

•8 bits (F4 menu)

•no parity (F4 menu)

•1 stop bit (F4 menu)

•no flow control (F4 menu)

•ANSI or VT100 terminal mode (F2 menu).

Within the SERIMUX firmware, the "CONSOLE" port is the internal connection between the TERMINAL and the SERIMUX. For consistency, when Port 0 is mentioned within this manual, it refers to the connection made by the

TERMINAL.

2.1 Setup The TERMINAL

To control the SERIMUX some initial settings must be configured in the TERMINAL.

2.1.1 Entering TERMINAL Setup

Hold down the <ALT> key and press the <Esc> key to enter Setup mode. When entering Setup, any text on the screen temporarily disappears, and the main SETUP directory appears (See Figure 5). When leaving the Setup mode, the main SETUP

directory disappears, and any text that was on the screen will reappear.

2.1.2 Setup Directory

The fields at the bottom of the screen show the various setup menus where the terminal's operating parameters can be changed and the function key to press to immediately display any menu.

Figure 5- Fields in the Setup menu display which function keys to press for submenus

2.1.3 Changing The TERMINAL Operating Parameters

To select one of the setup menus shown, press the indicated function key.

-The screen for that menu appears with the name highlighted.

-The fields at the middle of the screen indicate the parameters that can be changed in that menu.

-The top line identifies the keys to press to highlight the parameter fields and change the settings.

The procedure is: (1) Use arrow key to highlight the parameter field to be changed.

(2)Use the Spacebar to change the parameter.

<F12> always returns the user to the top menu.
