Serial Setup

• Connect the 9FRJ45PC-4 adapter to the user’s computer
• Connect the RPC EIA-232 port to the adapter via the RJ08X007 rolled flat ribbon cable.

• Use terminal emulation software to access the unit, 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1stop bit and no

parity, B/C switch set to ‘B’.

NOTE: At any time during the session you need to go to another menu, use the Attention
Character = semi-colon (;)
. Press the attention character key 5 consecutive times to get back to
the main status menu.

NOTE: Password feature is case sensitive. (Default is user/password is root/baytech)

Operation Important:

When operating remotely, do not send the command to turn “off” a receptacle that has a host terminal
or modem attached. Doing so will result in the host terminal or modem being powered down creating a
“locked-out” condition. You will not be able to reestablish a connection until the receptacle has been
turned “on” through the serial port.

IMPORTANT: If you send the command to “reboot” a receptacle with a host terminal or
modem attached, active connection to that terminal or modem is lost and will have to be
reestablished.

IMPORTANT: An assigned user is allowed one active session. The admin user is allowed
four sessions running concurrently.

The green LED’s correspond to the RPC receptacles. An illuminated LED signifies the corresponding
outlet has power turned on, thus the attached equipment has power to it. None lit LED signifies no
power to the receptacle.

Outlet Status Menu

The RPC Series are multi-user units, supporting one admin user and up to twenty-four outlet users.
(Maybe more than 24 outlet users in future models) The admin user has access to all outlets, user and
system configuration options, unit status, and unit reset capabilities. The outlet user’s status menu
displays only those outlets assigned to the user’s outlet list, as set by the admin user.

NOTE: The RPC Series supports one admin user. The admin user may have four sessions
running concurrently. Default user name is ‘root’. User names are case sensitive.

NOTE: Each session has an inactivity timeout of ten minutes, if there is no option to set the
timeout. After ten minutes of no activity elapses, the session terminates.

NOTE: The RPC3ADE Series menu is used for demonstration through out this manual. There
will be some differences in the menus dependent on the firmware revision and the number of
outlets on your unit.
