Connect the end of the cable with the DB-9 connector (or USB Type-A) to the terminal or PC. If your terminal
or PC has a console port that does not accommodate a DB-9 connector, you must provide an appropriate
adapter for that port.
Step 3
To communicate with the router, start a terminal emulator application, such as Microsoft Windows
HyperTerminal. This software should be configured with the following parameters:
• 9600 baud
• 8 data bits
• no parity
• 1 stop-bit
• no flow control
