If you are going to manage over a serial link from
your management station, Quick Config Manager
uses COM1 as the default serial port. You can
change this by editing the following line under the
[slip] subsection of the QUICKMGR.INI file:
SerialAttrib=COM1:9600,n,8,1
Editing it to
SerialAttrib=COM2:9600,n,8,1
changes the default serial port to COM2.

Configuring Multiple Hubs

There is a special feature which allows you to
connect your management station to a new
OfficeConnect® Hub 8/TP M without needing to
close and reopen Quick Config Manager. This is
particularly useful if you have many OfficeConnect
hubs that need configuring or monitoring.
This feature only works if all the hubs you are going
to connect to have the same baud rate (or are set to
Auto Config) as the management station.
Configuring Multiple Hubs
To do this:
1 Make your serial connection to the new hub.
From the File menu, select Reset View .
2
Quick Config Manager closes any windows that are
open in preparation for the new management
session.
