Power status: For models with dual power supply, Power statusshows the statusof the
power supplies. For example, if power supply 1 for a Digi Connect and ConnectPort TSFamily 16
MEI unit isdisconnected but power supply 2 is connected, the power statusappears as follows:
Power status:î¢î¢î¢î¢î¢Dual power (1 - Fail, 2 - Normal)

Serial Port Diagnostics
TheSerial Port Diagnostics page displays information on the current state of a serial port on your Digi
device.
n
Configuration: The Configuration page displaystheelectrical interface (Port Type) and basic
serial settings.
n
Signals: The Signals pane shows the state of serial port signals. Theserial port signalsare
green when asserted (on) and gray when not asserted (off). These signalsare defined as
follows:
l
RTS: Request To Send.
l
CTS: Clear To Send.
l
DTR: Data Terminal Ready.
l
DSR: Data Set Ready.
l
DCD: Data Carrier Detected.
l
OFC: Output Flow Control. Indicates that flow control isenabled on theremote side of the
serial-port connection, and that the Digi device should stop sending data.
l
IFC: Input Flow Control. Indicates that the Digi device isoperating as if flow control is
enabled for incoming data sent from the remote side of theserial-port connection. This
signal ismore of an indication that flow control is intended or expected rather than true
state information. If the remote side has a flow-control mechanism enabled, the Digi
device will use it.
