Once you are logged in, choose
Serial Ports
from the Admin menu on the Home
screen in the Web interface. You will be presented with the Serial Consoles
Attached menu, and a table with the following headings:
#: You can assign a value (1–99) to each attached serial device to identify the
devices so you can manage them. This does not affect the device’s configuration or
operation in any way.
Name/Description: An identifier for the Serial Access Unit. It’s used for
administration only.
Baud (bps): This is the device’s communication speed. Its setting must match the
setting on the device itself. The Serial Access Unit supports all common baud rates
between 300 and 115,200 bps.
Mode: Sets the character framing scheme that the ServSwitch will use with the
Serial Access Unit. You can choose from the following selections:
• 8N1: Eight bits, no parity, one stop bit (default and most common)
• 7N1/7O1/7E1/7M1/7S1: Seven bits, (none/odd/even/mark/space) parity,
one stop bit
• 8N1/8O1/8E1/8M1/8S1: Eight bits, (none/odd/even/mark/space) parity,
one stop bit
• 8N2: Eight bits, no parity, two stop bits
Force DCD: Forces the Carrier Detect signal to be active at all times. Normally,
DCD becomes active when a new user connects and is dropped when the last user
disconnects (a response that is similar to many modems). When active, the device
will log out and reset itself if the carrier signal is lost, increasing security. This may
not work with all devices and could impair proper operation in some
circumstances. The default setting is
Off
.
Console Log: Clicking this link will open a separate Web page that will display the
last 200 characters committed to that device’s console log. Existing data is
overwritten automatically when the 200 character limit is reached.
Connect…: Click on this link to connect to the corresponding device
(see
Section D.4
).
