NOTE

Connection Caution!

1.You cannot connect to the EDS using serial console and Telnet simultaneously.

2.You can connect to the EDS using a web browser and serial console simultaneously, or using a web browser and Telnet simultaneously.

3.Recommendation—when connecting to the EDS using a web browser, do NOT simultaneously connect using either a serial console or by Telnet.

By following this advice, you can maintain better control over how your Moxa EtherDevice Switch is managed.

NOTE

We recommend using Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, which can be downloaded free of

 

charge from Moxa’s website.

 

Before running PComm Terminal Emulator, use an RJ45 to DB9-F (or RJ45 to DB25-F) cable to

 

connect the EDS’s RS-232 Console port to your PC’s COM port (generally COM1 or COM2,

 

depending on how your system is set up).

 

After installing PComm Terminal Emulator, do the following to access the RS-232 Console

 

utility.

 

 

1.From the Windows desktop, click Start Æ Programs Æ PCommLite2.5 Æ Terminal

Emulator.

2.Select Open under Port Manager to open a new connection.
