4. Setting Up for Initial Operation
EAC-2100 Manual: (Draft, 02/01) Page 4-5
4.4 Connecting a Local Terminal (Continued)
2. Power up the terminal and set it to the following parameters:
• 9600 baud
• Even parity
• 7 data bits, 1 stop bit
• Full duplex (no local echo)
If possible, also set the terminal to:
• All capitals
• Send carriage return only (no line feed)
• Disable AUTO XON/XOFF and soft scroll
If you are using a terminal emulation program, select TTY or VT100. Be aware
that some terminal emulation programs generate extraneous characters that may
interfere with communicating with the EAC-2100.
3. Power up the EAC-2100. (After about 2 seconds, the terminal should respond
CONSOLE LOCKED.)
4. Enter <CR> (carriage return or enter, depending on the keyboard). (The terminal
should respond with a welcome message and prompt you for a password.)
• If something comes up but is illegible, check the terminal setup.
• If nothing comes up, power down. Recheck the power hookup, the terminal
hookup, and the terminal setup.
5. Enter the password, followed by <CR>. The default password is 1234. (The
terminal should respond with more salutation and the > prompt.) The system is
ready for you to set parameters.
