Local access to the control console
You can use a local computer that connects to the cooling unit through the serial port.
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 and extension, if required, 940-1000A)
to connect the selected port of the local computer to the serial port at the cooling unit (use the
DB-9 connector on the front of the electrical panel).
3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) and configure the selected port for 9600 bps, 8
data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Save the changes.
4. Enter the user name and password for the access desired (Administrator or Device User).
Note: To access the serial port, remove the front panel and lower air filter of the cooling unit.
