port on the front of the device. This port is labeled CON. The configuration options available
via the keypad are also available through the command line. These are described below.
Open a connection to the Local Manager using a terminal client on your computer. Supported
terminal clients include:
Windows HyperTerminal
ZTerm (Macintosh OS X)
Minicom (Unix/Linux)
The default console connection settings are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity. For
best results, set your terminal emulator to use ANSI encoding.
Note: The Uplogix Local Manager does not use flow control. If you use HyperTerminal, you
must disable flow control when configuring the session.
After you connect to the Local Manager, you will be prompted for a username and password.
The default username is admin and the default password is password. Usernames and
passwords are case-sensitive.
