Step 8: Connect Stratagy Admin PC to
Stratagy IVP8
Communication between the Stratagy Admin PC and the Stratagy IVP8 is accomplished by one of
two methods: local or remote.
Stratagy IVP8 uses the serial Port 2 by default to communicate with the Stratagy Admin PC (see
Figure 1). This setting can be changed using the
admin_port parameter in the Stratagy System
Configuration file (see Table 3 on page 25 for detailed information).
Local Connection
Using a null-modem cable, connect the Stratagy Admin PC to the Stratagy IVP8. A
prefabricated cable (SG-ADMCBL), designed expressly for Stratagy Admin communication
with the Stratagy IVP8, Stratagy DK and Stratagy Flash is available from Toshiba.
Note If you wish to purchase individual cabling/connectors/adapters in lieu of purchasing the
Toshiba Stratagy Admin cable, we have provided the wiring diagrams (see Figures 3 and 4).
