4. when using fs1, the rear serial port 1 is deactivated.
5. use a 9-pin to 25-pin serial converter cable when connecting to the rear serial port 1. the 9-pin to 25-pin serial converters are a customer-purchased option.
6. if you have a remote ascii terminal, connect it through an external modem to serial connector s1, and connect a local ascii terminal to serial connector s2 or serial connector s3.
if you have a local ascii terminal or a single serial device, connect it to serial connector s1.
you can connect additional serial devices to the two remaining serial ports (s2 and s3) that are located at the rear of the system.

the current usage for the serial port connectors is as follows:
serial port s1 is never used to run hacmp or to attach a ups. if you are configuring your system to run hacmp with a ups attached, you must connect the hacmp cable to serial port s2 and the ups cable to serial port s3. do not run a ups connected to serial port s2. if you decide to disconnect hacmp, you must reset the service processor using the pinhole reset switch before running another application. the service processor pinhole reset switch is located on the operator panel.
