2. Connect the other end of the cable to a workstation or terminal.

3. If you attached a workstation, start a terminal emulation program.

• Microsoft Windows users can use HyperTerminal, which comes with the Windows

operating systems.

4. Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings:

• Baud rate: 9,600 bps
