Configuring a Device with pmadm

Use this procedure to configure a RealPort device with pmadm. This procedure can be used from a command line prompt in the absence of a window interface to the operating system. For additional information and help on pmadm, consult your SCO UnixWare or SVR4 documentation.

The PortServer and RealPort should be properly installed, configured and functioning before proceeding.

Procedure

  1. Enter a pmadm command at a root prompt. Here is an example of a command that will enable a port for 9600 8,1,N. Modify the command as necessary for your terminal.

    pmadm -a -p digimon -s a001s -fu -i root -v `ttyadm -V`
    -m "`ttyadm -d /dev/term/a01s -l 9600 -s /usr/bin/login`"

    where:

    digimon

     is the port monitor tag. Use a different one if appropriate.

    a01s

     is the name of the device. Refer to your Digi manual for your device names.

    -l 9600

     sets the port for a baud rate of 9600.

  2. Verify that the port is enabled with this command:

    pmadm -l
