Getting Started

Powering on UC-7110

Connect the SG wire to the Shielded Contact located on the upper left corner of the UC-7110, and then power on UC-7110 by connecting the power adaptor. It takes about 16 seconds for the system to boot up. Once the system is ready, the Ready LED will light up.

ATTENTION

After connecting UC-7110 to the power supply, it will take about 16 seconds for the operating system to boot up. The green Ready LED will not turn on until the operating system is ready.

Connecting UC-7110 to a PC

There are two ways to connect UC-7110 to a PC.

Console Port

The serial console port offers users with a convenient mean of connecting to UC-7110. This method is particularly useful when using UC-7110 for first time. Since the communication is over a direct serial connection, you do not need to know either of the IP addresses in order to make contact.

Use serial console port settings shown at the right. Once the connection is established, the following window will open.
