To connect to the FibreBridge, select the appropriate COM port. If no choices are available, the bios or operating system may not be configured for a serial port. Refer to your computer or OS manuals for instructions. Once this is done, configure the remaining serial port settings.
The default values for the FibreBridge are:
➔Baud Rate = 9600
➔Data Bits = 8
➔Parity = None
➔Stop Bits = 1
➔Flow Control = None
If a link cannot be established, BridgeTools will time out and an error message will be displayed. If this happens, verify the following items:
➔The FibreBridge(s) is powered up
➔Cables have a secure connection. Make sure a crossover serial cable is being used.
➔The COM port on the computer is configured properly.
➔Hyperlink or some other serial program is able to communicate between the FibreBridge and the computer.
