TO
THE
MCU
The first time you install the MCU, you assign an IP address using
a terminal cable connection to access the boot configuration
menu. At power-up, the MCU goes through the following boot
phases:
Auto-boot—The embedded operating system initializes
and displays basic information.
Configuration menu—A six second countdown allows
you to enter the configuration menu.
Initialization—The MCU completes the boot sequence
and is ready for operation.
Note
You can perform serial port configuration of the MCU only
at startup, during a short period indicated by a 6-second
countdown. Once the initialization phase is complete, the only
way you can access the configuration menu is by restarting the
MCU.

ONNECT
TO
A
PC
You make the serial connection by connecting a PC terminal
equipped with a terminal emulation application to the front panel
serial port of the MCU.
Procedure
1.
Connect the MCU COM port on the front panel to a
PC terminal serial port using the supplied terminal
cable.
2.
Run a terminal emulation application (such as
HyperTerminal) on the PC.
3.
Configure the PC communication settings for the
serial port as follows:
9600 Baud rate
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No parity
No flow control
