This section describes PCS150R communication options for configuration purposes.
Note: Before you proceed with any additional server configuration, the system
should be installed and operating as described in the system setup procedure on
pages 14 to 17.
Also note that configuration updates periodically require that you reset the PCS150R. Make
sure to reset the unit when directed to do so.
There are two options for communicating with the PCS150R:
• When the PCS150R is connected to an IP network, you can use an SSH client to communicate
with the PCS150R via a command line interface.
• To establish a direct connection to the PCS150R, connect a PC to the RS-232 port on the
PSC150R rear panel using a DB9 Male-to-DB9 Female RS-232 straight-through serial cable
(Example: Cables Unlimited PCM-2100-06 serial cable) and, if necessary, a USB 2.0-to-serial
DB9 adapter (Example: Cables Unlimited USB-2920 adapter).
Using HyperTerminal or an equivalent terminal emulation program on the PC, configure the
serial port as follows:
− Bits per second/baud = 115200
− Data bits = 8
− Parity = None
− Stop bits = 1
− Flow Control = None
You will need to know the “admin” user password in order to log in to the command line
interface. If necessary, consult the system administrator to obtain the “admin” user password.
Note:
The default network setting for the PCS150R is DHCP, in which case the server assigns
an IP address to the PCS150R. If necessary, consult the network administrator to obtain the IP
address that has been assigned to the PCS150R.
