5.2.2 UN-INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
If for any reason you want to remove the IMUX 2000 Network Management Software from your
computer system, go to the Start menu and select Programs/RFL IMUX 2000/Uninstall RFL IMUX
2000. This will cause the Uninstall program to permanently erase all of the programs, icons, directories
and files related to the IMUX 2000 Network Management Software from your hard drive.
NOTE
If you want to save the existing nine network configuration files which are listed below, copy
these files to a diskette prior to using the un-install program. Otherwise they will be lost. Then
copy the diskette files to the new network management directory after installing the new
version of the Network Management Software.

5.3 CONNECTING YOUR PC TO THE NETWORK
In order to use the Network Management Software your PC must be connected to a node in the
network. There are several ways a user can do this. A direct connection can be made using an RS-232
cable, a connection can be made using an RJ-45 Ethernet cable, or a remote connection can be made
over a public or private phone line. These connections are shown in Figure 5-2 and 5-3. When using an
RS-232 connection, the user activates a Com Port connection and sets the baud rates of the PC and the
CM4 to the same value. The minimum suggested baud rate is 9600. The construction of a typical RS-
232 cable can be seen in Figure 5-4.
