EMS Console Redirection Settings
This feature allows the user to specify how the host computer will exchange data with the
client computer, which is the remote computer used by the user.
Out-of-Band Management Port
The feature selects a serial port in a client server to be used by the Microsoft Windows
Emergency Management Services (EMS) to communicate with a remote host server. The
options are COM1 and SOL/COM2.
Terminal Type
Use this feature to select the target terminal emulation type for Console Redirection. Select
VT100 to use the ASCII character set. Select VT100+ to add color and function key support.
Select ANSI to use the extended ASCII character set. Select VT-UTF8 to use UTF8 encoding
to map Unicode characters into one or more bytes. The options are VT100, VT100+, VT-
UTF8, and ANSI.
Bits Per Second
This feature sets the transmission speed for a serial port used in Console Redirection. Make
sure that the same speed is used in the host computer and the client computer. A lower
transmission speed may be required for long and busy lines. The options are 9600, 19200,
57600, and 115200 (bits per second).
Flow Control
Use this feature to set the flow control for Console Redirection to prevent data loss caused
by buffer overflow. Send a "Stop" signal to stop sending data when the receiving buffer is full.
Send a "Start" signal to start sending data when the receiving buffer is empty. The options
are None, Hardware RTS/CTS, and Software Xon/Xoff.
*When EMS Console Redirection is set to Enabled, the following items will be displayed as
detected by the AMI BIOS:
Data Bits
This feature displays the data transmission size for Console Redirection.
Parity
This feature displays the setting of parity-bit that is sent along with regular data bits to detect
data transmission errors.
Stop Bits
This feature displays the status of the stop-bit setting for Console Redirection. A stop bit
indicates the end of a serial data packet.
