E35

[Thomas Cole]

Where does the console connect to on an E35 series workstation?

[S.K. Chan]

There should be a built-in IO card that has these on it ..
1) single ended SCSI-2
2) parallel centronics port
3) RS-232 Distribution Panel Connector
If I remembered correctly a "Y" cable is used to connect to 3) and the other end goes to a "direct distribution panel" and "modem distribution panel". On the "direct distribution panel" (8 port DB25) is where I got the terminal console connected to.

Hi Thomas


The terminal console connects to the port ) of the ADP board which is on the SKBIO card . I dont think there is a direct connect type of stuff.

There is no direct connect in E35... the best way is to use a MDP card which has a console port...

i tried connecting my web console to that... it worked...

Hi,

I also have a E35. I have connected it using a MDP card.

I feel thats the only way you can connect an E35.

First of all to be accurate the E-class is a series 800 model and so is a server not workstation.

To connect a console, connect an MDP to a port on the core/IO labelled (To ADP/DDP).
The part number of the MDP is 5062-3054. Then connect the console on one of the ports on the MDP panel.


Good luck
