Serial Port Connect
Figure 32- Serial Port Connect Page
Select “SERIAL PORT CONNECT” from the side menu. The Serial Port Connect page allows a user to connect to a serial port on
the SERIMUX. (In Fig.32, the list shows that User 1 has a Telnet connection to Port 2.) To make a connection with a port, select
a Port number. A connection can be made provided:
the port is a host port
the port has a serial device connected that is not currently in use
the user has access to the port (see page 45)
With these conditions satisfied, a Telnet connection will be initiated. The user will be prompted to login with a SERIMUX user
name and password to complete the connection.
Note: The user must click inside the Telnet window before typing any characters.

If the port is already in use, the message “
Serial port is already in use......try later
” will appear in a Telnet
window.
If the port is configured as a user port and not a host port (see Port Settings- page 39) after logging in to the port the message
“
Serial port Not in host mode
” will appear.
