Procedure 20
Connecting a switch box and terminal to the SDI and COM1 ports
1 Set the terminal to 9600 baud, 7 data, space parity, one stop bit, full

2 Connect an NT8D95 cable to the terminal and to the switch box.
3 Connect NT8D95 cables to a matching connector on the switch box.
When using an A0377992 ABCDE box, connect:
CPU 0 to connector A.
CPU 1 to connector B.
The SDI port to connector D (connector C is common).
4 Connect NT8D95 cables from the switch box to J25 on the I/O panel in
the rear of each cPCI Core/Network Module.
5 Connect an NT8D95 cable from the switch box to the I/O panel slot for the
SDI card.
6 To communicate with the system in general, set the switch box to the SDI
port. To communicate directly with a COM1 port, switch the cable as
