Configuring Asynchronous Terminal and

Serial Printer Connections

This section describes how to configure asynchronous connections for Tandem 6530

terminals, 6530-compatible terminals, VT-series terminals, workstation-based 6530

terminal emulators, workstation-based VT-series terminal emulators, and serial printers.

Sample Configuration

Figure 8-1 shows a sample configuration with simultaneous support for a directly

connected 6530 terminal, a directly connected VT-series terminal, a remotely connected

6530 terminal, and a serial printer.

Note. You can also configure the AWAN access server to provide remote-node access for

Macintosh, DOS, and Windows computers. With remote-node access, a remote workstation

can use a 6530 or VT-series terminal emulator to access 6530 applications and function as if it

were directly connected to the local area network (LAN). For information about remote-node

access, refer to Section 9, Configuring Remote Access Connections
