pres

typical break key sequence for PC terminal emulators is

Note:

When

using

a

locally

attached

terminal to

run

the

grams, the service port line speed

must

be

set

to

9600

bps. This

set

stant and cannot be changed.

When connecting a IBM 2210 to a remote terminal

by

two

modems connect

telephone

lines, you must

follow

these

rules:

Ÿ If the modems are running at

a

speed

of

9600

ornot lower and they d

support hardware

compression,

the

IBM

2210

service

port

speed

and

minal speed

must

match

the modems’

line

speed.

Ÿ If the modems are running hardware compression,

the

IBM

2210

servic

speed

and

the

terminal

speed

should

exceed

the

modems’

line

Note:

The

is shipped with a plastic port

cover

to

prevent

such

damage.

Remove

cover when you are attaching a terminal and store

it in a safe place

disconnect
