A Lantronix Company SCS3230 System Administrator's Guide

Connection instructions for the logging port:
1. Turn on power to the terminal or computer. If using a computer, start the desired
communication program. The terminal or communications program used must
be in VT100 emulation mode
2. Ensure that the communications settings are correct. The factory defaults for the
control card, which may only be changed by a hardware DIP switch, are 9600
baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity (9600 8N1). If in doubt as to the
current communication settings on the control card, check the DIP switches and
refer to Figure 2, Control Card Layout with DIP Switch Settings, on page 9.
3. Locate the serial port on the terminal or computer and determine what type of
connector is used. The cable kit included with the SCS3230 contains each of the
following: one RJ45 serial cable, an RJ45 to male DB9 adapter, an RJ45 to
female DB9 adapter, an RJ45 to male DB25 adapter, and an RJ45 to female
DB25 adapter. Select the appropriate adapter for the serial port on the terminal
or computer.
4. Firmly seat the adapter in the serial port. Screw down the adapter to secure it to
the serial port.
5. Insert one end of the serial cable into the adapter until a click is heard. Insert the
other end of the serial cable into port "B" of the control card, again until a click is
heard.
6. At the sys admin>> prompt, enter the command LOG /ENABLE. Log in as a
user as outlined in chapter 7. Check for output on the logging port. If no output
has appeared, check all cable connections. If “garbage” characters appear,
check that all communications parameters match.
7. The SCS3230 will continue to output logging information through the “B” port of the
control card until the command LOG /DISABLE is entered at the sys admin>> prompt.
Configure any text captures or scripts as needed to receive the logging data.
7.10 Sys Admin Session Management Commands
The SCS3230 features two commands that allow the sys admin to manage properties of the
control port terminal session.
