pole serial cable (RS232) and plug the device into a outlet. Now you
can turn on Expert Power Control NET 4x DIN. The boot process
lasts a few seconds longer than by Ethernet.
You can access Expert Power Control NET 4x DIN through the

DIN and enter the following values for the serial interface:
Bits per seconds 115200
