20.3.2 Console Port Speed

The Prestige has an internal console port for support personnel only. Do not open

the Prestige as it will void your warranty.

You can set up different port speeds for the console port through Menu 24.2.2 – System Maintenance – Console Port Speed. Your Prestige supports 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200 bps. Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select the desired speed in menu 24.2.2, as shown in the following figure.

Once you change the Prestige consol port speed, you must also set the speed parameter for the communication software you are using to connect to the Prestige.
