Using the Serial Console
Comtrol provides one RS-232 DB9 console cable with the ES9528.
Note: A system COM port is required to use a serial console connection. If you do not have an available COM
port, use the Using a Telnet/SSH Console procedure on Page 129 .
1. Attach one end of the RS-232 DB9 connector to your PC COM port and connect the other end to the
Console port of the ES9528. If you misplace the cable, you can use this console cable pin assignment or
purchase a null-modem cable.
2. Start a terminal program such as HyperTerminal or use PuTTY, which is included with PortVision DX.
The following example illustrates using PuTTY.
3. Open PortVision DX, click Tools | Applications | PuTTY.
4. Click Serial for the Connection type.
