13.0 Configuring Device – Enterprise Serial (ABDG-SE-DP5XX)

The ABDG-SE-DP5XX family does not have an Ethernet port for initial configuration so initial configuration can be performed through the serial port. To do this it is necessary to connect using the serial connector.

13.1Connect a Host Computer

Connect the serial pigtail connector to the serial port on a host computer.

It may be necessary to use a gender changed that includes a Null Modem adapter.

13.2Interacting with the AirborneDirect™ device

On the Host computer, use a terminal emulation program to interact with the device issuing Quatech Command Line Interface (CLI) commands. CLI commands let you request status or change parameter settings. Press the Enter key (<CR>) after each command line you type. After the module starts, type the following CLI command to log in (you must log in before CLI commands can be recognized):

Send Break Sequence

 

 

The serial port starts up in a listen mode waiting for a

 

 

 

 

request for a data tunnel. To access the CLI mode in

 

 

 

 

which set-up can take place the break sequence must be

 

 

 

 

sent.

 

 

 

 

The default break sequence for the device is ÿ~ABD

 

 

 

 

The sequence must be sent with no trailing characters.

 

 

 

 

If received correctly the device will respond OK.

 

 

 

 

 

 

auth dpac dpac <CR>

 

 

The module responds with OK, indicating that it

 

 

 

 

executed the command successfully. (If you did not

 

 

 

 

receive OK, check the settings in your terminal emulation

 

 

 

 

program).

 

 

 

 

 

 

You will have to break into CLI mode and log into the module after any reset or restart.
