Setting up the Serial Connection

The ASUS Storage DS300j unit has a Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage
all of its functions via your PC's terminal emulation program, such as Microsoft
HyperTerminal. This procedure uses the serial cable connection you made on
page 13.
You must use the serial connection to run the CLI for direct management of the
ASUS Storage DS300j unit. See ―Chapter 3: Management‖ on page 17.
To set up a serial connection:
1. Change your terminal emulation program settings to match the following
specifications:
•
Bits per second: 115200
•
Data bits: 8
•
Parity: None
•
Stop bits: 1
•
Flow control: none
2. Start your PC's terminal VT100 or ANSI emulation program.
3. Press Enter once to launch the CLI.
When connected and ready, the CLI screen displays:
