Connecting Your Laptop Computer to the Chassis 
Introduction 
Before you start LCI, you must first connect your laptop computer to the chassis that 
contains the module(s) you want to check. 
Important:  LCI communicates only with those modules located in the chassis your 
computer is attached to.  To check other modules, you must connect your computer 
to the chassis they are located in. 
Connecting to the Chassis 
To connect your laptop to the chassis, follow these steps. 
 
1. 
Plug one end of a nine-pin serial extension cable into your computer. 
2. 
Plug the other end of the cable into the LCI port.  This port is labeled “Local 
Craft Interface”.
