To Telnet/SSH to a target computer serial port, you must Telnet/SSH to the SpiderDuo serial port
first and use connect serial CLI. This connects your SpiderDuo device to the target computer
serial port. The default settings are 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
The pinout of the included SpiderDuo cables match a standard DB9 COM port.
Cable Connections for KVM and USB
Connections for video, USB, and keyboard/mouse are integrated into the SpiderDuo device. Plug
the SpiderDuo device directly into the appropriate ports on the host system. If using the serial port,
cable it to the appropriate COM port on the server. Available extended-length cables are shown in

To ensure that the system (PC, local keyboard and mouse, and SpiderDuo device) function
properly at power up, it is recommended that the following procedure be performed.
1. Ensure that the PC and SpiderDuo are powered off.
2. Make connections for all devices.
3. Turn on the SpiderDuo first and wait for the SpiderDuo to boot up completely. The SysOK LED
will be on steady.
4. Turn on the PC.
Client Server Setup
Two mechanisms provide the monitoring of client servers that are connected through the Spider
device: platform-dependent management and platform-independent management.
Platform-dependent management—Spider View software is a standalone Windows XP or later
application that locates, manages, and accesses multiple Spider devices in an integrated
view. Spider View application requires ActiveX controls enabled. Refer to the Spider View
