9.2. CONFIGURING THE MODULE USING THE MODULE SERIAL PORT
Through the card-edge’s serial port, and using the serial 7700 upgrade cable connected to a PC’s serial
port running HyperTerminal (or equivalent), the VIP module’s IP address, subnet, and SNMP TRAP
destination address are identified. The 7700 upgrade cable supplied with the 7700FR-D frame is a
multi-coloured ribbon cable with a six pin header socket on one end and a female 9 pin D connector on
the other end, (Evertz part number
WA-S76) which is normally in the vinyl pouch at the front of the
manual binder.
Configure the port settings of the terminal program as follows:
Baud
115200
Data bits
8
Parity
None
Stop bits
2
Flow Control
None
Once the card is powered-up, the HyperTerminal connection displays boot-up status information and
once complete, ends with the “Status Message” as shown below:
Initialization Completed - 7767VIP Running
