2. Installation
2.5B
Configure Terminal Emulation
Program: Open a VT100-compatible terminal
emulation program (such as the HyperTerminal
program bundled with Microsoft
on a computer with an available DB9 serial
port. (A notebook computer may be the most
convenient choice.) Set the terminal emulation
program to use the COM port
corresponds to the computer's DB9 serial port.
Specify the parameters
communicate with the PDU terminal interface:
Bits per second: 9600
Data bits:
8
Parity:
None
Stop bits:
1
Flow control:
None
If the terminal emulation program supports
multiple emulation modes, you may also need
to specify VT100 emulation
2.5C
Connect PDU to Computer: Use the
mini-DIN to DB9 serial cable (part number
73-1025) included with the PDU to connect
the PDU to the computer. The circular
connector
at one end of the cable attaches
A
to the 8-pin mini-DIN serial port
PDU. (Align the connector carefully to avoid
damaging the pins.) The DB9 connector
the other end of the cable connects to the
computer's serial port
2.5D
Connect PDU to Network: While the
PDU is powered, connect a standard Ethernet
patch cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port
the PDU. Note: This port is not compatible with
PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications.
2.5E
Configure PDU in Terminal Mode:
After a brief pause, an initialization page
should appear in the terminal emulation
program. Press any key on the keyboard within
10 seconds to change the PDU settings. (If the
10-second period has elapsed, you can reboot
the PDU by powering down completely and
then restoring power.)
