The USB interface should be used for management of serial communication over CLI
Figure 1-2: CLI interface example
NOTE:
Make sure the USB port is disconnected prior to installing the USB driver.
The unit uses Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART IC internally. If this is the 1
st
time you are connecting
to the USB interface, then an appropriate USB driver should be installed in advanced before using the
USB serial interface. Please use the link bellow to download the most updated drivers:

Next, connect your laptop/desktop USB to the unit’s USB interface, and verify that the virtual COMM
was successfully added (COM4 in the example below).
