Chapter 3 Initial Configuration
ML-Series Access
Connecting a PC or Terminal to the Console Port
Use the supplied cable, a RJ-11 to RJ-45 console cable adapter, and a DB-9 adapter to connect a PC to
the ML-Series console port.
The PC must support VT100 terminal emulation. The terminal-emulation software—frequently a PC
application such as Hyperterminal or Procomm Plus—makes communication between the ML-Series
and your PC or terminal possible during the setup program.
Step 1 Configure the data rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these console port default
settings:
• 9600 baud
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
Step 2 Insert the RJ-45 connector of the supplied cable into the female end of the supplied console cable
adapter.
Step 3 Insert the RJ-11 modular plug end of the supplied console cable adapter into the RJ-11 serial console
port, labeled CONSOLE, on the ML-Series card faceplate. Figure 3-4 on page 3-6 shows the ML1000-2
faceplate with console port. The console port on the ML100-12 is at the bottom of the card faceplate.
