Establishing a Serial Console Connection

Establishing a Serial Console Connection
Before you can configure the AVS 3180 by using the command line interface (CLI), you must establish a serial console connection to it. This requires a PC, two DB-9 to RJ-45 adapters (provided), an RJ-45 180/rollover cable (provided), and terminal emulation communication software (Hyper Terminal or equivalent). You may also use a serial concentrator connection, if desired.
To establish a serial console connection, follow these steps:
1. Connect a console to the serial console port on the rear panel:
a. Attach a DB-9 or DB-25 to RJ-45 adapter to the serial port of the console.
b. Attach a DB-9 to RJ-45 adapter to the serial port of the AVS 3180. For the location of the serial
port, see Figure 3-10.
c. Use the RJ-45 180/rollover cable to connect the console to the AVS 3180.
2. If you have not already done so, power up the AVS 3180 as described in the “Booting the AVS 3180”
section on page 3-13.
3. Open your terminal emulation application on your PC to access the AVS 3180 CLI. The following
procedure uses HyperTerminal for Windows:
a. Launch HyperTerminal. The Connection Description window appears.
Chapter 3 Installing the AVS 3180
b. Enter a name for your session in the Name field.
c. Click OK. The Connect To window appears.
d. From the drop-down list, choose the COM port to which the device is connected.
e. Click OK. The Port Properties window appears.
f. Set the port properties:
Baud Rate = 9600
Data Bits = 8
Flow Control = none
