Subject: Operations Console Cable

So much for an "easy" thing to do.

 

We just got in an ops console cable to use in replacing out old 5250
console.    Hooking up a 9406-800 @ V5R3.

 

I ran the cable from the 800 to the PC serial port, turned on auto
config, ran through the wizard on the ops console set up and can't get a
connection (according to the ops console screen on the PC) even after an
IPL.

 

A couple/few questions:

 

Do I need to remove the 5250 device from address 0 port 0?

Do I need to configure anything manually on the iSeries side? 

Any other words of wisdom?

 

I did follow the instructions at
