The serial port of a PC does not support hot-swap. Do not plug or unplug the console cable into or from the

PC when your device is powered on.

• To connect the PC to the device, first plug the DB-9 connector of the console cable into the PC, and then

plug the RJ-45 connector of the console cable into your device.

• To disconnect the PC from the device, first unplug the RJ-45 connector and then the DB-9 connector.

2. Launch a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal in Windows XP/Windows 2000). The

following takes the HyperTerminal of Windows XP as an example. Select a serial port to be connected

to the device, and set terminal parameters as follows: set Bits per second to 9600, Data bits to 8, Parity

to None, Stop bits to 1, and Flow control to None, as shown in Figure 3 through Figure 5.

NOTE:

On Windows 2003 Server operating system, you must add the HyperTerminal program first, and then lo

in to and manage the device as described in this document. On Windows 2008 Server, Windows 7,

indows Vista, or some other operatin

system, you must obtain a third party terminal control pro

ram

first, and follow the user guide or online help of that program to log in to the device.
