Connection to the console port, located on the rear of the unit, is used for direct local
management. The SummitGbX console port settings are set as follows:
• Baud rate — 9600
• Data bits — 8
• Stop bit — 1
•Parity — None
•Flow control — XON/XOFF
The terminal connected to the console port must be configured as a VT-100 terminal,
with the same settings. This procedure is described in the documentation supplied with
the terminal.
Ensure that text wrapping is disabled, and local echo text is enabled on your
terminal.
Appropriate cables are available from your local supplier. To make your own cables,
pin-outs for a DB-9 male console connector are described in Table 4.
