Installing the LCS60
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.
