EMP Console Requirements This section outlines the requirements and configurations necessary for using the EMP console. Operating Systems: • Windows† 95  16 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended  20 MB disk space • Windows NT  Windows NT 4.0 or later  24 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended  20 MB disk space Client Configuration: The EMP console will support all COM ports on the client system, along with any Windows NT/95 compatible modem. Server Configuration: The EMP console requires that the server's COM2 port be connected to an external modem or directly connected to a serial cable. Direct Connect Configuration: A null modem serial cable is needed. Connect one end of the cable into the COM2 port of the server and the other into a port on the client machine. Modem Configuration: On the client, the EMP console uses the Windows application program interface (API) to determine if a modem is connected and available. The EMP Console does not configure the modem; it should be preconfigured through Windows. For modem support, the server must use a Hayes-compatible 14400 bps modem. The modem must be on the NT hardware compatibility list provided by Microsoft. The server modem must be set in autoanswer mode for the EMP console to be able to connect to it. Setting Up the Server for the EMP To use the EMP, you must configure BIOS with specific settings. Enter these settings in two submenus of the BIOS Server Menu: the System Management Submenu and the Console Redirect Submenu. The section above on BIOS settings shows all available options. The sections below focus on the settings that must be configured to use the EMP. 60
