486 Legrand PDU User Guide
Note: If the Legrand PDU enters the disaster recovery mode when the USB serial driver is not installed yet, it
may be shown as a 'GPS camera' in the Device Manager on the computer connected to it.
In Linux:
No additional drivers are required, but you must provide the name of the tty device, which can be found in
the output of the "dmesg" after connecting the Legrand PDU to the computer. Usually the tty device is
"/dev/ttyACM#" or "/dev/ttyUSB#," where # is an integer number.
For example, if you are using the kermit terminal program, and the tty device is "/dev/ttyACM0," perform the
following commands:
> set line /dev/ttyACM0
> Connect
Initial Network Configuration via CLI
After the Legrand PDU is connected to your network, you must provide it with an IP address and some
additional networking information.
This section describes the initial network configuration via a serial RS-232 or USB connection. To configure
the network settings using the web interface, see
Configuring Network Settings
(on page 140).
To configure the Legrand PDU:
1. On the computer connected to the Legrand PDU, open a communications program such as
HyperTerminal or PuTTY.
Select the appropriate COM port, and set the following port settings:
Bits per second = 115200 (115.2Kbps)
Data bits = 8
Stop bits = 1
Parity = None
Flow control = None
Tip: For a USB connection, you can determine the COM port by choosing Control Panel > System >
Hardware > Device Manager, and locating the "Dominion PX2 Serial Console" under the Ports group.
2. In the communications program, press Enter to send a carriage return to the Legrand PDU.
3. The Legrand PDU prompts you to log in. Both user name and password are case sensitive.
