This chapter describes standard RPM cables and adapter pin assignments for the E1200i AC and DC systems. It contains the following sections:
•RPM Ports
•Cable and Adapter Pin Assignments
•Accessing the 10/100 Ethernet Management Port
RPM Ports
There are three ports on the RPM. They are labeled and described as:
•Console. A Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) port with an
•Auxiliary. A UART port with an
•10/100 Ethernet. A 10/100 Ethernet port is the Management port, which is a channel to download images and manage the system, as well as FTP and Telnet operations. You must provide a

The console and auxiliary ports are asynchronous serial ports. If you connect a device to these ports, it must be capable of asynchronous transmission. Your terminal or terminal emulation mode must be set to VT100 with the following settings:
•9600 baud rate (to avoid autobaud input, the default is set to a 9600 bps baud rate)
•No parity
•8 data bits
•1 stop bit
•Window Terminal Emulator option set to NO
•24 lines X 80 characters
