Connecting serial cable and setting up communications software
3-2 DSLPipe DSU (SDSL) User’s Guide
2 Use a communications program (such as HyperTerm, PROCOMM PLUS,
Zterm, or any other program that supports VT100 terminal emulation) to
open a session directly with the port to which the DSLPipe unit is connected.
3 Set your communications software to connect with the following settings:
Note: If you are not already familiar with the settings listed, see the
documentation for your communications software. If you’re using the
software for the first time, going through an online or printed tutorial (if the
software includes one) is a good way to get started.
– Direct connection: Tell the software that there is a serial cable
connecting the DSLPipe directly to the computer.
– Serial port: Specify which of the computer’s serial ports the software
uses. If the only serial port available is currently used by an internal
modem, you may need to use your computer’s setup software to specify
an external connector for the port that will be used in place of the
internal modem. In some cases, you also may need to remove the
modem. See the manual for the modem and your computer’s user
manual for details.
– Terminal type: Specify VT100.
– Duplex: If the software lets you choose, specify Full. Because this is by
far the most common choice, most communications software sets this
by default.
– Bits per second: Specify 57600.
– Data bits: Specify 8.
– Parity: Specify None.
– Stop bits: Specify 1.
– Flow control: Turn off software flow control (XON/XOFF) and, if
possible, hardware flow control (RTS/CTS). Specify None.
