[comp.sys.sgi] Can a SGI 2400 run without a color monitor?

liang@occlusal.rutgers.edu (Tajen Liang) (09/01/90)

We at Rutgers recently brought an used SGI 2400.  We like to find out
if it is possible to run the machine with a dump terminal as the
alternative console (i.e., without a color console).
Since we do not have a complete set of manuals, we hope there is some
one in the net can help us.  Any help/hint/pointer will be great
appreciated.

    If it is like the 3000's, I think you disconnect the console
keyboard and plug a terminal into port 2 (or 2nd port).
