AB300A Console User Guide
Configuring the AB300A as an RS-232 Console
The following section describes how to create a terminal emulator session, how to create an
auto log on user account, and how to configure the terminal emulator session to automatically
launch when the thin client is rebooted for any reason.
NOTE:
There is currently no method of saving these configuration parameters to a file that can be
retrieved at a later time. Therefore, it is imperative that all configuration parameters are recorded for
future use.
