DLP-001

Perform Steps Below in the Order Listed

1.Connect a VT100 terminal to ATLAS 550.

•Set the parameters of the VT100 terminal to:

–9600 baud rate

–8 data bits

–No parity

–1 stop bit

–No flow control

•If the terminal has a parallel setting, disable it and use serial port.

•Plug the RJ-45 male end of the data cable into the ATLAS 550. Make the connection to the VT100 terminal as appropriate for your equipment.

2.Connect a PC emulating a VT100 terminal to ATLAS 550.

Most personal computers or laptops can run communications software that will emulate a VT100 terminal. Windows programs such as Terminal© or Hyperterminal© are two such examples in the Windows format. However, there are many other adequate, commercially available software packages which will allow your PC or laptop to emulate a VT100 terminal. Certain configuration items must be set on a PC or laptop for it to act as a VT100 terminal for the ATLAS 550.

•Set the parameters of the communications software to:

–9600 baud rate

–8 data bits

–No parity

–1 stop bit

–No flow control

•Set the PC for direct connect on the appropriate com port (instead of dial up connection).

•Plug the RJ-45 male end of the data cable into the ATLAS 550. Make connection to the PC or laptop as appropriate for your equipment.

You are now ready to log in to ATLAS 550, as described in DLP-002,Logging in to the System.
