However, it is strongly recommended that you do NOT do so. Following this advice will
allow you to maintain better control over the PT-7728's configuration.
NOTE
We recommend using PComm Terminal Emulator when opening the serial console. This
software can be downloaded free of charge from the Moxa website.
Before running PComm Terminal Emulator, use an RJ45 to DB9-F (or RJ45 to DB25-F) cable to
connect the PT-7728’s console port to your PC’s COM port (generally COM1 or COM2,
depending on how your system is set up).
After installing PComm Terminal Emulator, open the PT-7728's serial console as follows:
1.
