32 Nokia 500i Installation Guide
Caution
Nokia recommends that you use the console cable that was
delivered with your gateway for your console connection. Otherwise,
ensure that the pin assignments for your cable match those provided
in this section.
Note
Although pin assignments are the same for console and serial
connections, they are used differently by the gateway. Therefore, do not
use these two connectors interchangeably.
Use an ASCII terminal or a computer with terminal emulation software for
console communication.
The following terminal settings are required to communicate with the
gateway by using the console port:
! Baud rate
—
9600
! Data bits
—
8
! Parity
—
none
! Stop bit
—
1
! Flow control
—
none
To connect to the console
1.
Turn off power to the gateway.
2.
Connect the supplied null-modem cable (console cable) to the console
port.The console port is located on the front of the gateway.
Use only the DB-9 port labeled Console; the serial port AUX is an
auxiliary modem port.
If you connect the console port to a data-communications equipment
device, use a straight-through cable.
