OPERATION VIA TEXT MENU- IPDU-SX
The IPDU-Sx can be controlled using a terminal program (e.g. HyperTerminal) via an RS232-Link, connected to Console Port
(page 6) or using Telnet or SSH protocol via the Ethernet Port. Either of these methods will work to access the IPDU-Sx text
menu. The text menu can be used to control all functions of the IPDU-Sx as an alternative to the Web Interface (page 14).
