Connecting a Serial Device

Your computer has a serial port for connecting a serial device such as an external modem.

Follow this procedure to connect a serial device:

1.Make sure the “COM1 Settings” item is set properly in the SCU program. (See “Advanced Menu” in Chapter 5 for information.)

2.Plug the device cable to the serial port on the rear of the computer.

3.Turn on the computer.

NOTE: Portable modems that derive power through the serial port cannot be used with the computer. Instead, use a modem that is powered by its own internal battery or external AC power.
