NOTE Connection Caution!

1. You cannot connect to the VPort D361 simultaneously by serial console and Telnet.

Telnet.

We strongly recommend that you do NOT use more than one connection method at the same time.

Following this advice will allow you to maintain better control over the configuration of your VPort D361.

NOTE

We recommend using Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, which can be downloaded free of charge from Moxa’s website.

Before running PComm Terminal Emulator, use an RJ45-to-DB9-F (or RJ45-to-DB25-F) cable to connect the

VPort D361’s RS-232 console port to your PC’s COM port (generally COM1 or COM2, depending on how your system is set up).

After installing PComm Terminal Emulator, perform the following steps to access the RS-232 console utility.
