3 OPERATION

3.2Using a Terminal Emulator

The Multichannel Media Converter Management Module terminal emulator interface permits the network administrator to display status messages and to display and to modify selected network settings.

CAUTION: IP parameters can be set and/or modified ONLY at the attached terminal Interface.

The Multichannel Media Converter command-line interface is accessible using a terminal or terminal emulator attached to the PS/2 serial port on the Multichannel Media Converter.

NOTE: The serial port cable is attached directly to a DTE device through the serial port management control cable shipped with the Multichannel Media Converter.

1.Locate a PC equipped with any terminal emulation program.

2.Connect the Multichannel Media Converter to the PC by connecting the miniDIN end of the control cable (provided) to the Multichannel Media Converter Management PS/2 port and the other end of the cable to the PC DB-9 serial port connector.

NOTE: By default, the Multichannel Media Converter uses the following serial port parameter values:

bits per second

9600

stop bits

1

data bits

8

parity

NONE

flow control

Xon/Xoff

3.Using methods appropriate to the attached terminal, verify that the serial port parameters of the attached terminal match the Multichannel Media Converter port parameter values. If necessary, modify the attached terminal port parameter values.

4.Start the terminal emulation program.

5.Cycle power to the Multichannel Media Converter by disconnecting the power cord from the external AC outlet and then reconnecting the power cord to the external AC outlet...

After system initialization, a banner display comes up.
