Serial Cable

A serial cable is needed to connect the GSM to the Ethernet Interface. The next two figures illustrate typical cable connection of a personal computer. Figure B-1 shows connections to a personal computer with a 25±pin serial port and Figure B-2 shows connections to a personal computer with a 9-pin serial port..

Display Terminal Settings

When used as a local Station Manager terminal, set the terminal to ªWrap-Aroundº mode. This prevents loss of information in the event a Station Manager command response exceeds the display line width of the terminal.
