RPC SERIES OWNER’S MANUAL

DETAILED OPERATION AND CONFIGURATION

________________________________________________________________________________

Using the 9FRJ45PC-1 adapter (or other applicable adapter) and the RJ08X007 crossed cable, connect the serial port of your computer to the RJ-45 port labeled “EIA- 232” on the back of your RPC unit.

 

Load serial port communications software.

 

Configure host terminal’s serial

 

communications parameters to match the

 

RPC. RPC factory serial communications

 

parameters are 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop

 

bit, and no parity.

OPERATION

The RPC’s main menu allows the user to

 

monitor and control the equipment attached

 

to each of the RPC-2 and RPC-2A’s six

 

receptacles. From this menu, you can turn

 

on, turn off, or reboot attached equipment,

 

individually, or all equipment,

 

simultaneously.

 

The RPC recognizes three basic operating

 

commands: ON n<cr>, OFF n<cr>, and

 

REBOOT n<cr>, where n represents the

 

outlet number and <cr> represents a carriage

 

return.

 

There are six red LEDs on the front of the

 

RPC unit. There is a corresponding red

 

LED for each of the RPC’s six receptacles.

 

If any or all of the LEDs are illuminated,

 

corresponding receptacle(s) are turned

 

"ON," and consequently, attached

 

equipment is receiving power. If

 

any or all of the LEDs are not illuminated,

 

corresponding receptacle(s) are turned

 

“OFF.”
