I see that have to consult somebody, what to do with a
coax cable, first. I assumed, for two machines it should be
enough just to plug in some kind of cable...

I will probably be told to use a terminator. I think I know, how it
looks like. But never heard that word, only know that other thing
that wants to become governor of California.

Thank you, Chris, configuration issue seems clear to me, now.
