summary of the installation procedure.
Features
The DECserver 90L contains the following features:
• Simplified human interface
• Plug-and-go installation
• Small in size
• Rack mountable in DEChub
90 Ethernet backplane
• Network Management
through MOP and TSM
(future release of TSM)
• Eight ports
– 1.2K bits to 38.4K bits per second
– 8-bit characters
– One stop bit
– No parity
• One session per port
• Printer support, including queuing

Quick Start
To install and begin using your DECserver 90L is simple. It does not
require any programming or other assistance from system management.
After unpacking the unit:
1. Plug the power supply in a working AC outlet and plug the power
connector from the power supply in to your DECserver 90L.
The green power LED turns on to indicate DC power is getting to the
unit. The green self-test turns on to indicate that the unit successfully
completed its internal self-test. The self-test takes approximately five
seconds to complete.
2. Connect the unit to a properly terminated ThinWire Ethernet.
The green network LED turns on to indicate a good connection.
Overview 1–3
3. Connect a working terminal to one of the terminal ports. Refer to
Table 1–1 for supported terminal characteristics.
4. Turn the power on to the terminal and press Return twice to get the
DECserver 90L prompt (->).
Pressing Return twice causes the green activity LED to blink and
automatically sets the port’s baud rate.
5. Enter the name of the network node you want to connect to and press
Return . The DECserver 90L will display a string of dots ‘‘.....’’, one per
second, until the connection is made.
For more detailed information on installing and using the DECserver 90L
refer to Chapter 2, Installation and Chapter 3, Operation of this manual.
