although I have a board for them...they aren't important, I just thought
I'd mention that. I don't have a (working) terminal right now, so I tried
it with my pc (via serial port & pcAnywhere emulation of TVI 925 @ 75 to
1200 baud settings, n&e&o parity, 4 - 8 data, and 1 stop). With any of the
settings, I get garbage on the screen. I would like to get it to work with
my pc. Any help in those settings in particular would be great. I noticed
8 dip switches on the main board. Do you know what they are for?
T.H.x.

The 8-position DIP switch sets Baud-rate for the 'service-processor'
Terminal port. Switches 1-4 set that value per the following table.
Switches 5-7 are unused and switch 8 is reserved for diagnostics. I find
no mention of parity or the number of bits. I would assume None and
8-bits, though.

No. Baud Rate

Factory setting was for 9600 Baud.
Baud-rates for the user ports are set by software.
