The LM-6488 terminal includes both a parallel
port and a serial port. The parallel port supports
directly-attached printers via a parallel printer
cable, see the Printer section for more details.
The Serial Input tab is where you enable and
configure the parameters of the serial port to
exactly match the attached serial input device,
refer to the configuration options in this panel.
The Serial port can be used to support either
output devices (printers, cash drawers, etc.) or
input devices such as serial scanners,
keyboards, weigh scales, etc.
The LM-6488 has a feature that provides some
very useful productivity tools. When you are in a
twinax session, you can right-click your mouse
button, or use the key sequence “Alt+V” from
your keyboard, and a pop-up menu as shown to
the left will appear. You can then navigate and
select accordingly any one of the available
options via the mouse or cursor keys. Any of the
following host keys can be selected in this way:
When you are in a Twinax session, it is also
possible to check the configuration options, or
change certain options of the session by clicking
on the “File” button at the top left corner of the
session screen. A drop-down panel will appear
and when you select “Configure” the
“Configure Connection” master panel appears
for that session.
You can then browse the session’s settings or
change those that do not affect the host
connection. The crucial on-line settings are
grayed-out to prevent you from inadvertently
losing your IBM host session.
