Installation
This chapter tells you how to install the terminal, tum it on and off, and adjust the
terminal for your comfort.
Getting Ready
If the terminal is still in its shipping container, unpack the terminal. You should have the
display unit, keyboard, keyboard cable, power cord, and a keyboard overlay template.
Keep the container and other packing material
in case the terminal has to be repacked at
a later date.
Visually inspect the contents. If any of the components are missing or appear damaged
in any way, do not install the terminal. Instead, contact an HP Sales and Service Office.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should you open your terminal to
expose its internal circuitry. Only a qualified service engineer
should perform maintenance procedures that require opening the
terminal case.

1·2 Installation

The terminal can be connected to a host computer via EIA RS-232C!RS-423 or current
loop interfaces. Only one
of these interfaces can be used at a time. Modem connection is
only via EIA interface.
• If you are going to connect the terminal to a computer or modem via EIA interface,
you will need a 25-pin female RS-232C or RS-423 cable.
• If you are going to connect the terminal to a computer via the current loop port, you
will need an 8-pin female 20mA cable.
In addition, if you are going to connect the terminal to a printer, you will need a 9-pin
female cable for that purpose, as well.
The cable(s) must match the pin assignments specified in Appendix
A; otherwise,
the terminal will not work properly. If the cables supplied to you do not match the
terminal's requirements, contact your computer department manager or an HP Sales
and Service Office.
You will have to plug the power cord into a grounded power outlet. The HP 700/22
Display Terminal works with any voltage rating from 100 to 240 VAC. There is no volt-
age setting for you to adjust on the terminal.
Air ventilation for the HP
700122 is through the top, back and bottom. Do not obstruct its
ventilation.
Don't set anything on top of the terminal or close to its rear panel.

Installation 1·3

Preparing the Terminal for Use
Follow these steps to connect the HP 700122 Display Tenninal to your computer or
modem, and if applicable, to a printer.
1. Make sure the power onloff button on the front left of the terminal is set to off
(pushed in is on, flush with the panel
is off). Make sure the power cord is not con-
nected to the terminal.
2. Connect the keyboard cable. Both ends are identical. Plug one end into the
receptacle
on the rear of the keyboard (see the illustration at the end of this
chapter). Plug the other end into the keyboard cable receptacle
on the left rear of
the terminal.
3. Connect the terminal to a computer or modem using either the EIA port or the
20mA port. Only one interface port can be used at a time.
If you are using a RS-232C!RS-423 interface: Connect the cable to the port labeled
RS-232/423 on the terminal's rear panel. The other end of the cable must be con-
nected to a RS-232C or RS-423 computer port or modem.
If you are connecting to
a modem, follow the installation instructions in its manual.
If you are using a current loop interface: Connect the cable to the port labeled
20mA on the terminal's rear panel. The other end of the cable must be connected to
the host current loop connector.
4. If you have a printer, connect the printer's interface cable to the printer port on the
right rear
of the terminal. Make sure the other end of this cable is correctly fastened
to the printer.
5. Make sure the cables are fastened securely. To do this, use a 1I8th inch flat blade
screw driver to tighten down the screws on the cable connectors.
6. Now connect the power cord. Plug the slotted end into the AC socket on the right
rear
of the terminal. Plug the three-pronged end into the electrical power outlet.
1·4 Installation

Turning the Terminal On and Off
After following the installation steps, you're ready to turn on the terminal. Press the
power button on the front left
of the terminal. The button remains recessed while the ter-
minal
is on.
You'll hear two beeps when you turn on the terminal. The terminal performs a quick
self-test every time it's powered on. If there are any problems, refer to Chapter
4,
"Troubleshooting".
After the self-test
is done, the screen display comes on. In Chapter 3, "The Display
Screen" section provides an illustration of what the screen may look like when it
comes on.
To turn the terminal off, push the power button again so that it is flush with the front
panel.
Adjacent to the power button
is an entry door to the front of the display unit. Un-
obtrusive in appearance, this door is provided for terminal service functions. Pushing
down lightly on the door opens it. Moving it gently back it into place closes it.

Adjusting for Comfort
The brightness and contrast controls are slide switches under the front right comer of the
terminal.
You can slide these switches to the left and right to adjust screen brightness
and contrast.
To adjust the tilt, move the top of the display unit gently up or down until the angle is
most comfortable for you. The display unit remains tilted at the angle
in which you
leave it.
The base
of the display unit allows you to swivel the unit freely to the right and left.
The keyboard can either lie flat or be raised at an angle.
To raise the keyboard at an
angle, flip down the bar on the rear underside
of the keyboard.

Terminal Setup
Introduction
This chapter tells you how to use the HP 700122's Setup Mode.
Setup Mode consists
of a series of menus which let you adjust the terminal so that it
can communicate properly with your computer, application programs and peripherals.
You can also use Setup Mode to choose the features that make using the terminal most
convenient.
You won't use Setup Mode very often. For instance, you'll use Setup Mode when you
first set up your terminal to work with a computer or printer. And occassionally you may
want to use Setup Mode to make minor adjustments to specific features
of the terminal.
Ask your EDP department
or consult your system software documentation regarding the
parameter values that should be entered
in Setup Mode to ensure the terminal commun-
icates correctly with your computer.
If there's a printer connected to the terminal, look
up its communication requirements
in its manual. Use the worksheet at the end of this
manual to write down the Setup information you need.

Changes of Setup values can be temporary, lasting only until you turn off or reset your
terminal. Or you can save changes for ongoing use.
To make temporary changes. exit Setup Mode without using the I!l!IIfield in the
General Setup menu. This activates all the current field values but does not change
the terminal's non-volatile memory. The Setup values stored in non-volatile memory
will become
active the next time that the terminal
is powered on or reset.
To save changes so that they will he in effect when the terminal is next powered on or
reset, highlight the I!l!II .field in the General Setup Menu and press I Enter I. This stores the
current Setup values in non-volatile memory. These values become active when you exit
Setup Mode, and will be active the next time that the terminal
is powered on or reset.
You can use the I!l!II field to save all Setup values in non-volatile memory except for
these two fields:
NumeriC Mode Keypad and Normal Mode Cursor Keys. These two
fields always revert to their default values when the terminal
is powered on or reset.
