Setting Up Serial Cable Connections
Serial communication enables the Command Line Interface (CLI) on your PC to
monitor and control the VessJBOD. The VessJBOD package includes a RJ11-to-
DB9 serial data cable.
The CLI is explained in “Chapter 3: Management” on page 21.

To set up a serial cable connection:
1.
Attach the RJ11 end of the serial data cable to the RJ11 serial connector on
the controller.
2.
Attach the DB9 end of the serial data cable to a serial port on the Host PC or
Server.
This completes the serial cable connection. Go to “Connecting the Power” on
