STEP 3 – Number of Sessions Selection
This step requires setting a selection in the Setup menu to configure the terminal for
single or dual session mode.
If you’ve connected two host cables (A or C AND B or D), and you wish to run in
“dual session” mode, enter Setup and set “Sessions=Two” in the Quick (F1) menu.
For single host operation, this setting should already be set at “One” since this is in the
default state.
To access the Setup menu, press Ctrl-Scroll Lock on a PC-style keyboard or F3 on
an ANSI keyboard.
STEP 4 – Linking Ports to Sessions
If you have selected “Sessions=One,” then you can skip to Step 5. If you have
selected “Sessions=Two,” there are four designations to make. This step will be used
later in Step 7.
First, you have to decide which serial port will be assigned to your first host in Session
1 (either EIA, Aux, or None). Now, decide which port will be used for your second
host in Session 2 (EIA, Aux, or None). The same port should not be used as the
host port for both sessions. Then, determine which port will be used as the printer
port in Session 1 (EIA, Aux, Parallel, None). Do the same for the printer option in
Session 2.
