2.4. Configure the modem or the null-modem cable

If a modem is used, configure it to be a dumb modem at the port speed selected in Section 2.3 . If the modem accepts Hayes AT commands see Chapter 12 to dumb-down the modem.

Alternatively if a terminal and a null-modem cable are used see Section 11.3 , which discusses the pinout of the null modem cable.
