THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable to an Ethernet connector. 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet standards require Category 5 or higher cabling.

The WAVE-594 and WAVE-694 appliance has two Ethernet connectors that are attached to the Ethernet controllers (see Figure 1-5). The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide an interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provide full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto negotiation, the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the network and automatically operate at that rate and mode. You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controllers.

Note There is a third RJ45 connector on the front of the appliance (see Figure 1-1). This is a console port. Do not connect this port to your network.

Console Port Connector

The WAVE-594 and WAVE-694 appliance has two console port connectors, serial and mini-USB (see Figure 1-1). Use a console port connector to access the command-line interface (CLI) for controlling the WAVE appliance.

For information on connecting a console terminal to the mini-USB console port, see the “Connecting a Console Terminal” section on page 1-6.

Connecting a Console Terminal

The WAVE appliance has both serial and mini-USB console ports (see Figure 1-1). These ports provide administrative access to your appliance with a console terminal or PC.

Note You cannot use both ports at the same time. If both ports are connected, the mini-USB port takes priority.

Note When using the mini-USB port to connect to a Windows-based PC for the first time, you must install the Windows USB driver on the PC first. See the “Installing the Cisco USB Driver” section on page 1-6.

Cabling

The following cables included with the WAVE appliance may be used for connecting the WAVE appliance to a console terminal or PC:

USB Console cable—5-pin USB to mini-USB Type A-B

Serial Console cable— EIA RJ-45 to DB-9

Installing the Cisco USB Driver

When using the mini-USB port to connect a Microsoft Windows based PC as a console terminal to the WAVE appliance, you must first install the Windows USB driver on the PC. Otherwise, the USB interface may not function.

The following Windows operating systems are supported:

Windows XP—32-bit and 64-bit

Vista—64-bit

Windows 7—32-bit and 64-bit

To install the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB driver, perform the following steps:

Note Do not connect the cable from the Windows PC to the WAVE appliance until after the driver is installed.

Step 1 Load the DVD that came with your WAVE appliance and double-click the CUSBInst.exe file. The Cisco Virtual Com InstallShield Wizard begins.

You can also access the driver from the WAAS software download area of Cisco.com located at:

http://www.cisco.com/cisco/pub/software/portal/select.html?&mdfid=280484571&catid=268437639&

softwareid=280836712

It’s located under release 4.4.1 and the filename is CUSBInst_Signed_18May2011.exe

Step 2 Click Next. The Ready to Install the Program window appears.

Step 3 Click Install. The InstallShield Wizard Completed window appears.

Step 4 Click Finish.

Step 5 Connect the USB cable to the PC USB port and WAVE appliance mini-USB console port. Within a few moments, the Found New Hardware Wizard appears.

Follow the instructions to complete the installation of the driver.

Step 6 Once the installation is finished, the USB console is ready for use.

Note If the driver has been installed on the PC but does not get bound to the hardware, you can manually browse the driver installation query to the location C:\Windows\tiinst\. The newly attached hardware will appear in the Windows Device Manager as "TUSB3410 EECode Ser".

This solution also applies when connecting additional WAVE appliances to the same PC. Multiple WAVE appliances can be independently administered by console sessions on the same PC.

Note You do not need to reinstall the driver if you change to a different USB port on your PC.

Note If you happen to install the driver multiple times, each time the driver is installed the virtual COM port number assigned to the USB port gets incremented. This is expected behavior and may not get reset even if you uninstall the driver.
