Connecting a Monitor
The VOYAGER 3000 is shipped with a serial cable for making the connection from the
options board at the rear of the system to an external monitor. To use the monitor utility, run
the cable from the VOYAGER 3000 to your monitor. The terminal should be configured as
shown in Table 4-1 and set up for VT100 emulation.

Emulating a Monitor
If you do not have a dedicated monitor at your disposal, you can still access the VOYAGER
3000 monitor utility by using a PC and communications software to emulate a monitor. In this
example, we will use the Microsoft Windows V3.X

Terminal program.
