Advanced Configuration Using the Integrated SSH Shell

In most cases, configuring the SV441DUSBI to the same settings as the R-Port devices you are connecting should allow the devices to work with a minimum amount of configuration. However, you can also change the default settings on each R-Port device to fit your preferences and the needs of your application.

If you click the Connect… button next to the device you want to con- figure, two new windows will appear. The smaller of the two is a login screen; the other is an SSH terminal window. Click the login window and sign in as admin (using the same password as the Web interface) to activate the terminal window. You will see a welcome banner similar to the following:

Baud rate: 115200 bps, 8N1

Connected to #1: (none)... (Press Ctrl-Shift-_ for menu).

You are now connected to the R-Port module in a live terminal session. Commands you type will be echoed on the terminal screen. The module also offers a simple menu system that allows you to change its configura- tion settings (similar to the function of the menus in a terminal software package). Press [Ctrl] - [Shift] – [ _ ] (underscore) on the keyboard to access the menu. It will be similar to the following:

RS-232 Menu (#1: (none), 115200 bps, 8N1)

Q – Disconnect

# - Send break

H – Hangup line (drop DCD)

E – Send Ctrl-Shift-_
