Access the internal interface
To access the Automatic Transfer Switch internal menus, use a terminal
emulation program such as HyperTerminal:
1. Select a serial port on your computer, and disable any service that
uses that port.
2. Connect your computer to the Automatic Transfer Switch configuration
port, using the communication cable (included).
3. Start a terminal session and configure the selected port for 19200 bps,
8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Save the changes.
4. Log on to the Automatic Transfer Switch using the user name and
password for the appropriate access level:
User access is as follows:
• When you log on as User, you can view information but you cannot
configure settings or enter data.
• When you log on as Administrator, you can view information, configure
settings, and enter data.
Note
Some terminal emulation programs require that a device be
disconnected and then reconnected for the new serial port
settings to take effect.
