Basically, the cable must connect input signals (e.g., Receive Data) on the TROY XCD print server to the equivalent output signals (e.g., Transmit Data) on the device and vice- versa.

If you are connecting a printer to the second serial port (S2) on the XConnect 100, you must first disable console mode on that port. This is done by using the console command SET

and then typing the command EXIT to exit the console (refer to Chapter 3 and Appendix A for information on using the console). To re-enable the console function, you must either enter the command SET

using TELNET, DEC MOP or the TROY XCD XCONFIG NetWare utility, or reset the unit back to factory defaults.
