Connecting PC with SUN using RS232 cable

I am trying to connect an RS232 cable from a PC com1 to SUN
interface A. I started a getty on the SUN: getty term/a 9600
And brought up Tera Term Pro on the PC and even tried Hyper Terminal.
I have tried to set com1 to various settings 8 none 1 none, 7 none 1
hardware, etc.... and even connected a breakout box and crossed pins
2 and 3. Sometimes I get garbage and sometime I get Login: prompt
that I can type into but Return does nothing. Does someone have any
directions on how to set this up? I don't even know if the two RS232
cables I have are compatable or not.

Hello, Michael and John,
I would like to add some additional information to John's answer.
You can use Remote VISA on your Solaris workstation to access the VXIpc's VXI interface using the same VISA API you would use to access a local device. First, on your VXIpc, you should install VISA Server if it's not already installed. (It likely is already installed, so you can probably skip that step.) Then configure the VISA Server through your VISA options in MAX to start when the computer starts and allow connections from your Sun workstation. After setting up your VXIpc in this way, from your Sun workstation you can connect to any VISA resource on the VXIpc by specifying the resource string "visa://[address-of-VXIpc]/[local-resource-name]". "[address-of-VXIpc]" should be replaced by the IP address in the form "a.b.c.d", or by the VXIpc's network name, and the "[local-resource-name]" should refer to any VISA resource that is on the VXIpc, such as "VXI0::0::INSTR". You can even use viFindRsrc() to find remote resources with this mechanism.
Using this information, you should be able to write your VISA application on your Sun workstation. To test your remote VISA setup, you can run NIvisaic on your Sun workstation to access the VXIpc interactively.
Note that if you are doing a lot of single-point access, with functions such as viIn and viOut, or using other small transfers, these accesses will be considerably slower than they would be if written directly on the VXIpc, as each one must travel across the network to get a response, and networks have a high latency.
Also, you will need NI-VISA 3.1 on your Solaris workstation to access your VXIpc this way.

    how to connect to internet by using Ethernet Cable
    I have apple mac book pro with retina display.plz send me the setting thank u

    There's no setting. Plug in the cable to the adapter for either USB or Thunderbolt and plug the other end into your router. You can turn off wireless at that point.

  • How to create dynamic connection string with variables using ssis.

    Hello,
    Can anyone let me know on how to create dynamic connection string with variables using ssis?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi vinay9738,
    According to your description, you want to connect multiple database from multiple servers using dynamic connection.
    If in this case, we can create a Table in our local database (whatever DB we want) and load all the connection strings.  We can use Execute SQL Task to query all the connection strings and store the result-set in a variable of object type in SSIS package.
    Then use ForEach Loop container to shred the content of the object variable and iterate through each of the connection strings. And then Place an Execute SQL task inside ForEach Loop container with the SQL statements we have to run in all the DB instances. 
    For more details, please refer to the following blog:
    http://sql-developers.blogspot.kr/2010/07/dynamic-database-connection-using-ssis.html
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to let me know.

  • Can I connect TC with ethernet to USB cable?

    Can TC work as HD only by connecting to my Imac with ethernet to USB cable?

    Please confirm that you have at least two good ethernet cables, which will be needed for the installation.
    I understand that you do not need for the Time Capsule to provide a wireless network, and it will only function as a hard drive, correct?
    The step by step that we provide will allow you to backup to the Time Capsule using the current modem/router that you have now and also backup using ethernet if you connect the computer directly to the Time Capsule.
    This is what you want, correct?

  • I want to connect to the internet using ethernet cable.

    I want to use ethernet cable to connect to the internet. I follow the instructions, I am still unable to connect to the internet with the ethernet cable. I want faster browsing and uploads and download speeds

    If you have a router connect an Ethernet cable from the cable/DSL modem to the WAN port on the router. Connect another Ethernet cable from one of the router's LAN ports to the Ethernet port on the computer. Open Network preferences, select the Ethernet port and click on the Advanced button. Click on the TCP/IP tab then select DHCP from the Configure IPv4 drop down menu. Click on the Apply button.
    Turn off the computer, router, and modem. Wait at least one minute. First, turn on the modem and wait until the status lights indicate connection to your ISP. Second, turn on the router and wait until the status light shows communication with the modem. Last, turn on the computer.
    If you do not have a router, then do the same as the above except that the Ethernet cable connects from the modem's Ethernet port to your computer's Ethernet port.

  • Connection lost with DKU-2 USB cable for 6230

    I got tired of trying to solve connectivity problems
    with the bluetooth device and bought a new cable.
    It seems that neither the Bluetooth or the Cable can transfer more than a few MegaBytes in one shot ("Connection to mobile phone lost").
    I have upgraded to the newest 6230 firmware (05.35).
    I'm Running Windows XP Home Edition SP2.
    I don't think this is a PcSuite problem since this
    error accurs when I use the usb drivers too.
    Suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Hi onearmfrog
    Did you let PC Suite 6.83 update over 6.82 or did you uninstall it and Nokia Connectivity Driver first? I think remnants are left behind unless it is done manually and PC Suite Cleaner is used to clean up computer first.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • G5 xserve connected to fibre switch using 2 cables

    i have a G5 xserve and 2 xserve raid connected to a fibre switch. at this moment the xserve is connected using one cable but heard that using a second cable will improve performance (increased bandwidth). is this correct?
    i remember reading that doing something like that will cause all raid volumes to show twice in finder

    You can connect both cables. It will work fine. The double-volume "issue" was fixed in 10.3.4 I believe -- so that's info that's 3+ years out of date
    You should see a performance increase doing this.

  • B560 connection with projector using long cable no display

    Hello Guys , 
    I am  having a problem with projector connection shown in the picture below.I have  tried other PCs there is no problem. This case only happening with B560. Until now I did bios  update. Do you think that there is problem with intel HD graphics driver ? Any suggestion ?  

    hi OKR-MAN,
    Thank you for your post, Its really uncertain at this point to understand what exactly is causing. But base on diagram and if i were to decide from first look i'd say you have a cable failure. But may i know what type of cable are you using specifically and  are you connecting through VGA, HDMI or using any converters.
    Do let me know and let me check this out for you.
    regards

  • Connect MBP to TV using RCA Cables

    Hi. Is there a way I can connect my MacBook Pro to my older TV just using RCA?
    Basically I have Red, Yellow and White open ports on my TV and wondered if there was a cable or a converter of some kind that I could connect my computer to and then connect that to the RCA cables.
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: crystalfromshawnee

    Those are actually composite inputs (the yellow is video, the red and white are stereo audio), not RGB. Depending on what model of MacBook Pro you have, this adapter might work:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A
    If your MacBook Pro has a mini DisplayPort connector rather than DVI, then it's been reported that a mini DisplayPort adapter (available from Apple) and this converter:
    http://www.grandtec.com/products/video/untimateEZ.html
    works, but I have no personal experience with it.
    Either solution would require that you run the audio separately, from the headphone/speaker output of your MBP to the red and white inputs on your TV.

  • Connecting a Yamaha P120 using Serial Cables

    Hey. i recentyl got a macbook with the new improved garageband and wanted to hook up my ymaha keyboard to it. i tried using my midi-interface, which had previously worked with my older computer and garageband. However, the keyboard would not transmit to garageband. Through many tests, i came to the conclusion that the midi out on my keyboard was busted, probably due to gigging with that keyboard before i bought the expensive case. So, i ordered a keyspan 28XG 8 pin mini din cable to usb converter to utilize my keyboards direct to host connect feature. However, it will not show up in audio midi setup even though i've downloaded the correct driver (as confirmed by the fact that the keyspan serial assitant sees that interface.)
    is there a way to get midi data into garageband this way, or am i screwed?
    please post if you think you can help me. i really want to get this amazing keyboard to work with garageband and maybe eventually logic or live if it comes to make sense.

    The problem is not with your keyboard (as long as it has a midi out), but with your interface - it doesn't seem to talk properly to the Mac. People have reported problems with the MidiSport and the latest system software.
    If you can still exchange it, here's a list of interfaces:

  • Since iOS 8.02 my iPad2 will not connect to older tv using composite cable. Any suggestions?

  • Connecting Macbook to PS3 using Crossover Cable

    I am attempting to connect my Playstation 3 to my Macbook. My Macbook is connected to a Telus internet stick which is successfully connected to the internet. I have just purchased a Nexxtech Crossover cable and have connected that between my Macbook and PS3.
    The issue is getting my PS3 connected to the internet.
    I have enabled internet sharing in system settings on the Mac.
    For the PS3, I am assuming to go: network settings, internet connection settings, custom, wired connection, auto detect, and then manual ip address. The problem I believe is the settings for IP address, subnet mask, primary and secondary DNS. It is these fields of information that I don't know how to fill.
    Much help is appreciated, I have been at this for hours.

    You don't need a crossover cable as at least the Mac is auto MDI/MDI-X.
    The PS3 should use DHCP and you might encounter problems depending on wether you have the firewall turned on or not on the Mac.

  • Trouble connecting Ichat with friend using AIM account on a pc

    Hi, I am new to Apple's and Ichat. I am attempting to video chat with a friend, who is using an AIM account on a pc. We have tried turning her firewall off. I am unable to connect with her. I keep getting a communication error. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    First try to connect to the Apple "bot" test servers listed here. Then, at the bottom of that same webpage, there is a list of "real-people" Mac testers. See whether you can work them. That will let us know whether the problem resides on your end (a Mac/router/ports problem) or her end (PC/AIM/ports/exceptions problem). Post back and let us know how things work out for you Mac-to-Mac.
    If you can't get ahold of a real people contact tester, I could contact test with you if you want. My setup has worked "out of the box" since day 1. However, I configure my iChat security to only allow people on my buddy list to see that I'm online. So I'd need to know your AIM screen name so I could temporarily add it to my buddy list or you'd never see me online. You would have to email your screen name to me, and a suggested time to try a test. Between 7PM and 9PM MDT works best for me. To get my email address, copy the following line into Terminal.app and hit enter:
    echo 9274185136367780862791258724411398020885770P|dc 
    To get my AIM screen name, copy the following line into Terminal.app and hit enter:
    echo 502754583644136110388490P|dc 
    But I'd try the contact testers listed on Ralph's website first -- they probably aren't as limited in their available hours of operation

    Hi,
    What is your HP 365 actually ? As you  say, it has an email address, you can send an email from your iPad to it to print. It must be connected to the Internet. There are few other ways but I need to know what is your HP 365.
