Ok, do you mean by this that you want to use your PC as the console terminal
for your SS10?

>How do I have to configure the terminal program? What cable do I need?

A null modem cable should do fine. The terminal program should be configured
for 9600 bps, 7 data bits and even parity.

>The serial interface on the SS10 is the one labeled "A/B" right?

Yes. The signals for port B use spare pins which aren't required by port A.
So if you use a normal straight-through cable with a null-modem adaptor, or
a null-modem cable, it will work.

Regards,

Craig.
