10baseT Connector
The 10baseT connector is located on the rear panel of the IPAL. It provides connection to the Ethernet.
Note: Connection to an Ethernet hub is made using the cable provided. To directly connect to a PC, a crossover
cable is required. This cable is available at any computer store.
An LED on the jack indicates when the connection to the network is properly established
Serial Connection * for models without internal modem *
This connection provides for RS-232 connection for out-of-band connection to the iPAL. A terminal or modem can be
attached directly to this 9 pin connector. With a modem attached, connection is made using PPP (Dial-up-Networking) and
Telnet.
Connection directly to a laptop or terminal requires a null modem (crossover) cable.
With a terminal directly installed, a simple menu interface is used. These menus are identical to the telnet setup and control
screens. Use any terminal emulation software to connect to the iPAL.
Connection parameters are: 19200bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity (19200,8,n,1). Set flow control to OFF
