Advanced Configuration Using the Integrated SSH Shell

In most cases, configuring the SV1115IPEXT to the same settings as the R-Port devices

you are connecting should allow the devices to work with a minimum amount of

configuration. However, you can also change the default settings on each R-Port

device to fit your preferences and the needs of your application.
If you click the Connect… button next to the device you want to configure, two

new windows will appear. The smaller of the two is a login screen; the other is a

SSH terminal window. Click the login window and sign in as admin (using the same

password as the Web interface) to activate the terminal window. You will see a

welcome banner similar to the following:

Baud rate: 115200 bps, 8N1
Connected to #1: (none)... (Press Ctrl-Shift-_ for menu)

You are now connected to the R-Port module in a live terminal session. Commands

you type will be echoed on the terminal screen. The module also offers a simple menu

system that allows you to change its configuration settings (similar to the function of

the menus in a terminal software package). Press [Ctrl] - [Shift] – [_] (underscore) on the

keyboard to access the menu. It will be similar to the following:
RS-232 Menu (#1: (none), 115200 bps, 8N1)
Q – Disconnect
# - Send break
H – Hangup line (drop DCD)
E – Send Ctrl-Shift-_
L – Low log entries (line buffer)
1 – Show last 10 log entries
other – Return to connection
Press key ->
To execute the desired command, simply press the corresponding key on the

keyboard. You can also execute the command and avoid the menu by pressing the

[Ctrl] – [Shift] – [_] key combination quickly and pressing the letter of the command. To

quit the menu, press [Q] on the keyboard when the menu is active. These commands

are not sent to the device you are managing and relate to the R-PORT module itself.
