Resetting the IOLAN SCG
This inset reset button allows you to reset the IOLAN, reset the IOLAN to its Perle or custom factory
default configuration or reset the IOLAN to the Perle factory default settings. The Power/Ready
LED color and the resetting of the IOLAN default configuration vary depending on how long you
press and hold the RESET button, as shown in the table below.
Connecting to the RS232 RJ45 Device Ports
Connect devices, workstations, servers or routers using a straight through serial cable. Should your
environment need to use rolled cables, the IOLAN software provides that ability through software
configuration. See the IOLAN User’s Guide V5.0 and greater for more information.
