The adapter provides 802.3 Ethernet connectivity, TCP/IP host connectivity, and Telnet application connectivity.

Configuring The Terminal

In order for the adapter to function successfully, the terminal should be configured as follows:

Data Format

8 data bits

1 stop bit

No parity

EIA Baud Rate

38400

EIA Communication Protocol

None

Xon/Xoff

DTR/DSR

Both

This setting should match the Comm Protocol setting of the adapter (see page 9). If the adapter’s Comm Protocol is set to None, the terminal could lose data.

Emulation

This adapter works with all the standard terminal emulations. However, the host emulation should match the terminal emulation.

For example, a user logs on to a UNIX system, and selects the host emulation to be AT386 (using the command TERM=AT386 <CR> followed by set TERM<CR>). At this point, the user must make sure that the terminal emulation is also set to AT386 (by entering the terminal setup and checking the emulation parameter).

A terminal in PC-Termemulation with Scan Code mode on, can not navigate the adapter setup menu. Change the key mode to ASCII or change the terminal emulation to other than PC-
