Click the Sa e button near the bottom of the screen to make the change active. A Ser er
Status Message screen will appear while the unit reboots. Wait several seconds for the

5: If the EtherPath serial port settings (Baud Rate
= 9600, Data Bits = 8, Flow Control = NONE,
Stop Bits = , Parity Bit = NONE) do not match
the client device, click on Configure Port from
the menu and modify the serial port configuration
of the EtherPath, shown in Figure 4, to match that
of the client device.
If settings were changed, click the Sa e button
near the bottom of the screen to make the changes
active. A Ser er Status Message screen will
appear: Clicking the “Back” button returns to the

6: Connect the RS-232 cable between the serial
port of the EtherPath and the serial port of the
client device. Open a telnet session to port 3000
of 92. 68. . . Note that the EtherPath is
configured by default to listen on port 3000, not the standard elnet port 23.
Testing the Link
With the link established, the Telnet session should interface to the client device's serial
port with the same functionality as if the PC were connected directly to the serial port of
the client.
