Supervisory Port
A Supervisory cable connects the BANDIT III’s DB9 Supervisory port to the DB9 serial port
of a computer with a control console (such as a PC).
Note:
If the Supervisory connection is through a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port on the
control console computer (such as a personal computer, PC), use an appropriate adapter—
for example, a DB9-to-USB adapter.
If you wish, you can give the BANDIT III an IP address; then you can configure and monitor
the BANDIT III over the LAN. This frees the DB9 Supervisory port for use as an additional
serial port for legacy applications.
For specifications of the DB9 serial port, see
