Got my PDP-11/34! Now what?

All right. The following cards are in my system:

(1) M9302 11/04 UNIBUS Terminator
(1) M7257 RK05 Bus Control Module
(1) M7256 RK05 Register Module
(1) M7255 RK05 Disk Control Module
(1) M7254 RK05 Status Control Module
(1) M920 UNIBUS Connector
(2) M7856 RS-232 SLU & Real-Time Clock Option
(1) M7819 8-Line Double Buffered ASYNC EIA With Modem Control
(8) M7847 RAM
(2) M7850 Parity Board For G651
(1) M9202 UNIBUS Connector, Inverted
(1) M9312 Bootstrap Terminator
(1) M7859 Console Interface
(1) M8265 11/34A Data Paths Module
(1) M8266 11/34A Control Module

I have a cable that connects to the connector on the M7856. It ends in a
DB25 connector. I don't have a manual for the DL 11, but the 1973-74 PDP-11
Peripherals Handbook talks about it. So, my question is, how do I attach the
console to the computer, and change the communication settings?

Thanks,
Owen
