The command line interface provides a method to fully control and monitor the operation of the Wide
Bank using any terminal or PC running terminal emulation software.
Using the Command Line Interface
1. Configure the terminal interface to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow control.
2. Connect the serial port of a terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software to the RS-232
port of the Wide Bank (female DB9 connector).
This gives you access to the command line interface. After pressing the Enter key, you should
see the following display:
