12.5 TERMINAL (Console)
To connect a serial terminal (according to the device model), use the 9pin RS-232 D-Sub connector in the
front panel or the RJ45 connector of the LAN-CPU. Via the serial terminal connection it is possible to con-
figure parameters with a command line interface. You have to use a NULL-MODEM cable (D-Sub) or a
CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 cable to establish a connection to your PC or Laptop computer.
You can use e.g. the standard Hyperterminal program shipped with your Windows operating system. Configure
your terminal program with 38400 Baud, 8 Databits, no parity and 1 Stopbit. The terminal emulation have to

first connection; default user: root password: timeserver).
