The system then displays messages similar to the following:
Created device: /dev/cul0p7
Created device: /dev/ttyd0p7
Created device: /dev/cua0p7
..
Dialin enabled
To disable remote access, use the disable action with the dialin command. The status action will
display the current state of either enabled or disabled for remote access.
Enabling or Disabling Remote Access Hardware
Once the internal modem is configured for remote access, the computer needs to be enabled, or
disabled. Also at this point, you can select either the internal or external mode. An internal or external
modem can be used for dialout/dialin on an HP computer system. However, only one of these modems
can be used at a time. The line speed between the internal modem and the system defaults to 19,200
bits/sec and is not configurable. The line speed for the external modem can be configured at 19200,
9600, 2400, or 1200 bits/sec. To enable, disable, or select which modem to use for the remote access,
perform the following steps:
1. Put the Service/Normal switch in the
Service
position.
2. At the system console, press [CTRL]+B. This puts you into the command mode.
3. Check to see if the remote console is locked, if so, unlock it with the Unlock Remote (UR)
command, before configuring access or enabling remote console.
4. When dialing in for remote console access, there is no speed sensing, so it is necessary to verify
that the remote console port is configured for the same speed as the originating modem. To
configure the remote console port for the appropriate speed, use the Configure Access (CA)
command mode. The following information is displayed:

8. When finished, exit the PDC command mode and put the key switch back into the ON position.
