SCON-3074 Configuration
707112-001
For example, from the Central Control menu, ‘6/4,u’ can be entered to take you into the
device connections panel, and allow you to disconnect a client. If the test input is specified as
6/4 the password prompt will not be displayed and no forced disconnection will be allowed.
If an incorrect password is entered, “ X-f “ is displayed in the input inhibit area of the status
row. After pressing the Reset key, the password may be re-entered, and a new menu item may
be selected.
If no supervisory password was established during configuration, the password prompt will
not be displayed, and updates may be performed without the password.
The supervisory password is defined and set on the General Options panel of Configuration.
Boards in the System
The SCON-3074 supports boards that provide host and client connections. Boards supported
by the 2XL are:
• ESX – ESCON Host Interface
• FET – Fast Ethernet 100/10 Mbps
Board Number and Connector Numbering
Since it is possible to support multiple boards of the same type, the following format was
devised to identify specific connections to the SCON-3074:
brd#.con where:
brd represents the 3 character board mnemonic (FET or ESX) described above.
# represents a number 1-2, identifying the instance of the board that you are referring to.
Examples:
ESX1 (first ESCON interface card)
FET2 (second FET board)
