QS–20 UR SWITCH MODULE – QUICKSTART GUIDE
QUICKSTART GUIDE
The console port must be connected to the computer’s serial port using a serial cable with
a pin-out as shown above. Note that both ends of the cable are terminated in a DB9 pin
female connector. Pins 5 of this cable are connected together while pin 2 at one end is
connected to pin 3 at the other end. Once you have connected the computer’s serial port
to the switch’s console port, you can launch Hyperterminal as shown below.
The Hyperterminal utility application is a convenient standard software tool that will be
used to configure the Switch. This program is found on most Windows-based operating
systems under Programs > Accessories > Communications > Hyperterminal.
