Sounds like an IPX, IPC or LX - I'll have to look at mine to see what
model # it has on it...
You can hook up a serial terminal to either (using port "A"), but if
you're going to do that to the Lunch Box style one, you'll need a DIN-8 to
DB-25 adaptor. Fortunately, one from a MAC will work just fine. Also,
don't forget about putting a null modem in line with it.
The SparcStation LX does have a DB-25 serial port on it. It's the
2 port combination version. I hooked mine up to a VT520 using a DEC
H8571-E DB25-MMJ adaptor.
BTW, I just noticed, my VT520 can have up to 4 sessions, but it
has only 3 serial lines. I assume it could use the printer port for the
4th session?
