Local SCP-1 Serial Craft Port

Access

1.Connect to the SCP-1port directly and open a VT100 terminal emulation program. (For cabling information, see Cabling the Serial Craft Port on page 2-9.)

2.Press ENTER, and you should see the NSP1> or NSP2> prompt. Follow the instructions on page 3-13to log into the system.

Remote Modem SCP-1 Serial Craft Port Access

1.Connect a modem to the SCP-1directly using a modem cable and configure the modem appropriately. Follow the modem manufacturers instructions to set the modem for connection via RS232 at 9600bps, 8 data bits, no parity and one stop bit at the DTE port. The modem should be set to auto-answer incoming calls and local echo options should be disabled.

NOTE: It is particularly important to ensure that all local CONNECT messages and terminal echo options are disabled on the modem as these messages arriving at the BROADway system from a modem port can be interpreted as command line interface strings.

2.Dial in to the modem using a VT100 terminal emulation program and, once the modem has trained and answered you should be presented with the NSP1> or NSP2> prompt. Follow the instructions on page 3-13to log into the system.
