Direct Connection to the LCS60

To connect an asynchronous terminal or PC directly to the LCS60 for use as an LCS60 console, refer to Figure 2-3 and follow the steps below:

1. Serial Port 1 should be optioned to emulate DCE operation. This is the default; therefore, if you haven't changed anything there will be no need to change the option.

2. Connect a 25-pin RS-232 cable between the LCS60 rear panel connector labeled "Serial Port 1" and an asynchronous terminal or PC (Figure 2-7).

3. Power-up the system console and set the options as directed in Table 2-4.

4. Continue with the Connecting Fiber Interface section.
