Local access to the control console

You can use a local computer that connects to the NetworkAIR IR System through the serial port on the control board to access the control console. Whenever possible access the control panel through a network connection.

The procedure requires the front door and right side (low voltage) of the electrical panel of the NetworkAIR IR In-row Precision Air Conditioner to be open, which creates an electrical hazard.

1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port.

2. Use the configuration cable (APC part

number 940-0103) to connect the selected

 

port to the serial port (J2) on the

 

controller board. The controller board is

 

in the right compartment of the electrical

 

panel.

Serial Port (J2)

Do not touch components on the electrical panel, other than the serial port.

3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) and configure the selected port for 2400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control, and save the changes.

4.Press ENTER to display the User Name prompt.

5.Use apc for the user name and password.
