The PortServer TS 8/16 MEI settings are configured through the software. Complete the Quick Start Guide and go to the User's Guide for the procedure to configure the MEI ports. The ports are set to EIA-232 by default. If your device is not EIA-232, configure the MEI settings immediately after completing the Quick Start. The default settings will not harm your device, however, we recommend configuring the MEI settings immediately as a precaution.
