The RCP is connected through a serial line directly to the host computer. The following must be configured for this:
- RCP TTY setups. See RCP8 User Guide (M212923EN)
- Host computer setup/RCP configuration (for example, for IRIS)

| Main serial device name | /dev/ttyS1 |
| Running at | 19200 |
| With parity | None |
| Receive format from RCP | RCV02 |
| Transmit format to RCP | XMT02 |
On RCP8 itself, set set to:

| Main Interface to RCP | None |

For more information on setting-up a serial line interface, see RCP8 User Guide (M212923EN).
The AntExport utility may be run on the host computer to export control to another computer.
