Starting a Control Session
Once you have installed Optimux-34 and have completed the installation and
operation procedures as described in
Chapters 2
and
Chapter 3
, you can start a
control session.
³ To set the terminal communication parameters:
1. Connect the terminal to the 9-pin CONTROL connector. Run a terminal
emulation program.
2. Set the default parameters of the terminal communication port to 8 bits per
character, one stop bit and no parity bit.
3. Disconnect Optimux-34 from the mains, and then reconnect it to the mains.
4. Wait for about half a minute while the software is unpacking. Afterwards the
System Test LED will be blinking in yellow.
5. While system test LED is blinking, press <.> at least four times until
Optimux-34 detects the correct baud rate
6. Optimux-34 automatically detects and adapts itself to terminal baud rates of:
9,600, 19,200, 38,400, 57,600, and 115200 bps. After detecting the correct
baud rate, Optimux-34 displays the user name and password entry form.
Preparing Optimux-34 for Control Session
This section describes how to prepare Optimux-34 and the supervisory terminal
for the control session.
Optimux-34 includes a V.24/RS-232 asynchronous DCE port, designated CONTROL
and terminated in a 9-pin D-type female connector. The control port continuously
monitors the incoming data stream and immediately responds to any input string
received through this port. The port requires straight cable for the ASCII terminal
connection. The Optimux-34 control port can be configured to communicate at
the following rates: 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 57.6, or 115.2 kbps (default 115.2 kbps).
The word format consists of one or two stop bits and 8 data bits; parity is
disabled.
Any standard ASCII terminal (a “dumb” terminal or a personal computer running a
terminal emulation application) equipped with a V.24/RS-232 communication
interface can be used to configure Optimux-34.
Appendix A
details the pin
assignment and control signal directions of the Optimux-34 control connector.
Up to three users can connect to Optimux-34 simultaneously.
