Before Configuring Terminal and Printer Connections
Defining the DTC
DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX has its two port connectors built
directly onto its backplane for support of up to
16 asynchronous devices. It does not have removable
cards; you do not specify the number or type of cards for
a DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX.
The valid card types are:
For DTC 16 and DTC 48:
D for direct connect cards (up to 8 ports per
card),
M for modem connect cards (up to 6 ports per
card),
X for DTC/X.25 Network Access cards (for
connection)
For DTC 72 MX:
L for the LAN card, pre-installed in slot 0
A
for asynchronous processor boards (up to 24
ports per card for direct and modem
connections)
X for DTC/X.25 Network Access cards (for
X.25 connection).
DTC Event
Logging For each DTC, you may specify which event logging
class is to be enabled. Event logging class 1 logs
catastrophic events and will always be enabled. Class 2
logs critical events; class 3 logs non-critical events;
classes 4 and 5 log informative events and class 6
provides statistical information. It is recommended
that you only enable classes 4 through 6 when you
encounter problems, because they will generate a
substantial amount of events logged.
Event logging classes do not apply for DTC 16RX access
to an HP 3000 in an MPE/iX host-based management
environment; any values entered in these fields for the
DTC 16RX will be ignored.
