Media Card

RS-232 maintenance port

The RS-232 maintenance port provides access to the Media Card command 
prompt for monitoring and maintenance purposes, such as upgrades and 
debugging. This port is available at the 9-pin connector on the Media Card 
Adapter CLAN, and also at the mini-DIN socket on the faceplate of the Media 
Card. The serial port settings are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and 
no flow control.

Note: 

The maintenance port should only be accessed by one of the above 

connections at a time.

Connecting the Media Card to a modem

To provide remote access to the Command Line Interface (CLI) for support and 
remote maintenance, you can connect a modem to the serial port of the Media 
Card. 

To set up a working interface

1

Use a standard serial cable and establish communication with the modem 
from a PC with the following settings: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no 
parity, and no flow control.

2

Ensure that a Hayes compatible modem is used. From the command line, 
type 

AT

,

 

and then press Enter.
