40 Starting and Configuring the DeviceConfigure the TerminalTo configure the device, the terminal must be running terminal emulation software.Ensure that the terminal emulation software is set as follows:1 Select the appropriate serial port (serial port 1 or serial port 2) to connect to the console.2 Set the data rate to 9600 baud.3 Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.4 Set flow control to none.5 Under Properties, select VT100 for Emulation mode.6 Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Ensure that the setting is for Terminal keys(not Windows keys).CAUTION: When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft® Windows 2000,ensure that Windows® 2000 ServicePack 2 or later is installed.With Windows 2000 Service Pack 2, the arrow keys function properly inHyperTerminal’s VT100 emulation. Go to www.microsoft.com for information on Windows 2000 service packs.Booting the DeviceNOTE: The assumed bootup information is as follows:• The device is delivered with a default configuration.• The device is not configured with a default user name and password.To boot the device, perform the following:1 Ensure that the device Serial port is connected to an ASCII terminal, or the serial connector of adesktop system running terminal emulation software.2 Locate an AC power receptacle.3 Switch off the AC power receptacle.4 Connect the device to the AC receptacle. See "Connecting a Device to a Power Supply" on page 36.5 Switch on the AC power receptacle.When the power is turned on with the local terminal already connected, the device goes through PowerOn Self Test (POST). POST runs every time the device is initialized and checks hardware components todetermine if the device is fully operational before completely booting. If a critical problem is detected,the program flow stops. If POST completes successfully, a valid executable image is loaded into RAM.POST messages are displayed on the terminal and indicate test success or failure.1 Ensure that the ASCII cable is connected to the terminal, and that parameters on SW emulation areconfigured correctly.2 Connect the power supply to the device.
