MD-215 Hardware
Display Control Interface

Connecting to the UART Control Interface
The control interface of the MD-215 is accessed over the RS-232/422/485 serial port. A Telnet terminal (like
Moxa’s PComm terminal emulator, or PuTTY) should be used to communicate with the display.
When launching a terminal emulator you will need to configure the connection. Below, we show you how to
configure an emulator using Moxa’s PComm terminal emulator. The relevant connection settings are shown in
step 2.
1.
Select Port Manager, and then select Open.
