Introduction to Serial CIMs 
To connect an ASCII serial device, LAN/WAN component or a server 
through a serial port (RS-232) to the Paragon II system, use one of our 
serial CIMs. They are P2CIM-SER, P2CIM-SER-EU and AUATC. These 
CIMs can emulate an ASCII terminal and convert the serial data from the 
ASCII device to VGA video (800x600x60) and PS/2 keyboard signals. 
With this conversion, you can access and operate any ASCII serial 
device connected to the system. 
The table lists the port difference of the serial CIMs: 
Model 
Serial port 
Local port 
P2CIM-SER 
 
 
 
P2CIM-SER-EU 
 
 
 
AUATC 
 
 
 
 
Usually the use of P2CIM-SER or P2CIM-SER-EU is enough to satisfy 
your needs to access a serial device, unless you need to connect a local 
PS/2 or Sun keyboard and a VGA monitor to the device. In that case, 
choose AUATC, which provides a local port. 
Here are some useful features of the serial CIMs: 
 
Interoperates with an ASCII device in the On Line Mode as if the 
device were connected to a text terminal 
 
Edits, copies, marks, and resends data to the ASCII serial device or 
computer in the Buffer Edit Mode 
 
Maintains eight pages of data in a circular buffer 
 
Provides 12 programmable keys for frequently-used character 
strings or commands 
Note: The P2CIM-SER and P2CIM-SER-EU are functionally identical. 
The only difference between the two is that the P2CIM-SER-EU supports 
a wider variety of non-English language keyboards and character sets.
