Mode To access Monitor mode from the supervisory terminal, perform the
following:
Connect an ASCII ANSI terminal or a PC capable of emulating an ASCII
ANSI terminal to the RJ-45 CONTROL connector on the front panel of the
ARC-101. Terminal communication port setup should have a baud rate of
9600 bps, 8 bits/character, one stop bit, no parity.
