Use the front panel craft port to connect the NetGuardian 16 to a PC for onsite unit configuration. To use the craft
port, connect the included DB9 download cable from your PC's COM port to the craft port. Pinout is shown above for

Quick Start: How to Connect to the NetGuardian 16
7
Most NetGuardian users find it easiest to give the unit an IP address, subnet and gateway through the front craft
port (TTY interface) to start. Once these settings are saved and you reboot the unit, you can access it over LAN to
do the rest of your databasing via the Web Browser interface.
Alternative option: You can skip the TTY interface by using a LAN crossover cable directly from your PC to the
NetGuardian 16 and access its Web Browser. See Section 7.2.
...via Craft Port (using TTY Interface) 7.1
1. The simplest way to connect to the NetGuardian 16 is over a physical cable connection between your PC's
COM port and the unit's craft port. Note: You must be connected via craft port or Telnet to use the TTY
interface. Make sure you are using the straight through (1 to 1) Male to Female DB9-DB9 download cable
provided with your NetGuardian 16 to make a craft port connection. We'll be using HyperTerminal to connect
to the unit in the following example - however, most terminal-emulating programs should work.
To access HyperTerminal using Windows:
2. Click on the
Start menu > select Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal.
