Aerohive
The pin assignments in the male DB-9 console port follow the EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance) RS-232 standard. To
make a serial connection between your management system and the console port on the HiveManager, you can use a
null modem serial cable, use another serial cable that complies with the RS-232 standard, or refer to the
pin-to-signal mapping shown in
Figure 3
to make your own serial cable. Connect one end of the cable to the console
port on the HiveManager and the other end to the serial (or COM) port on your management system. The
management system must have a VT100 terminal emulation program, such as Tera Term Pro
©
(a free terminal
emulator) or Hilgraeve Hyperterminal
®
(provided with Windows
®
operating systems).

Console Port Pin Assignments
The serial connection settings are as follows:
•
Bits per second: 9600
•
Data bits: 8
•
Parity: none
•
Stop bits: 1
•
Flow control: none
Status LEDs
The two status LEDs on the front of the HiveManager indicate various states of activity through their color (dark,
green, amber) and illumination patterns (steady glow or blinking). The meanings of the various color + illumination
patterns for each LED are shown in

Male DB-9 Console Port
(View of the console port
on the HiveManager)
The above pin assignments show a DTE configuration for a
DB-9 connector complying with the RS-232 standard. Because
this is a console port, only pins
2
,
3
, and
5
need be used.
