Two ways to
ProgramThere are two distinctly different ways in which you can program the
DXP: directly through the DXP or through the database program
PCMMI..
The most common form of DXP programming is to directly connect a
PC, video display terminal (VDT), or dumb terminal to one of the
serial ports on the CPU board. Then, using PROCOMM Plus for
WindowsTM, or some other communications software, you can change
the default database in the DXP. With this...

Connecting Data
DevicesThe DXP has two serial data ports on its CPU board that
accommodate data devices such as VDTs, PCs, printers and modems.
You can also add serial data ports with the communications card
(DXPCOM)..
If the cable from the data device you want to use is not already
equipped with an 
RS232-type jack, refer to the data device
manufacturer’s manual. Also see, 
IMI66-085, for the proper wiring
connections. When connecting a data device, be sure to consider the

before purchasing them. If the modems do not have auto-answer
capability, someone at the site must manually activate the on-site
modem.
When you install a modem, always consult the modem manufacturer’s
