BIOS Setup

Console Redirection

Console Redirection operates in host systems that do not have a monitor and keyboard attached. This setting enables/disables the operation of console redirection. When set to [Enabled], BIOS redirects and sends all contents that should be displayed on the screen to the serial COM port for display on the terminal screen. Besides, all data received from the serial port is interpreted as keystrokes from a local keyboard.

Flow Control

Baud Rate

This setting specifies the transfer rate (bits per second) of Console Redirection.

(s). NULL stands for a null modem.

Agent wait time (min)
