Setup Serial Communication
You may configure the network settings using the command line interface (CLI) with a
serial connection. Users can connect serially using the optional RJ45-DB9 cable (or
make your own cable by creating a unique pinout as described below in the “Serial
Cable Pinout to Create Your Own Cable” in Section 4).
1. Verify that the computer has a serial port. If your computer does not have a DB9
serial connector, but does have a USB connector, obtain a USB-to-DB9 Adapter to
convert the USB to a DB9 serial port.
2. Using the optional RJ45-DB9 cable, connect the RJ-45 end to the port labeled
“RS485-1” on the front panel of your PDU model (see Figure 2). Connect the
DB9 end of the cable to the computer.
3. Open the terminal emulation program (HyperTerminal or PuTTY) on the computer
and select the serial port connection (such as COM1).
4. Set the communications port as follows:
•
Bits per second: 115200
•
Data bits: 8
