CHAPTER 4: Operation

The Remote Management Switch automatically detects the rate of operation, allowing connection at 300 bps to 115.2 kbps. Using the default speed will allow the fastest access to the unit. To invoke the auto rate detector, press the Enter key one or more times as needed. When the Switch detects the rate, it will respond with the security login prompt:
