1. Verify that the “DTC name” and “Card number” displayed are
correct.
2. Use the [Tab] to move the cursor to the first nailed port on the card.
Enter the ldev number and profile for each nailed device.
Ldev numbers used for each port on the DTCs must be unique. Up to
4649 terminal I/O devices may be configured on an HP 3000
Series 900. The largest valid ldev number is 4679.
A profile for the port defines the characteristics of the device to be
connected to that port. For direct terminal ports, the suggested
profile to use is TR10D96. For direct printer ports, the suggested
profile to use is PR18D96 (or PR22D24 for HP printers with status
checking). For a UPS connected to a DTC port, the suggested profile
is UP10D12. Refer to Chapter 7, “Terminal and Printer Profiles,” for
more information on profiles.

the card number entered in the last step will be displayed.
