Downloading a USB-to-serial driver

Download and install a USB-to-serial driver that applies to your operating system. After installation,
perform the following steps to verify that a USB serial port is available on your PC (Windows 7 as an
example):
1. Click Start. In the Start menu, right click the My computer icon and select Manage.
2. On the Computer Management page, select Device Manager.
3. Expand Ports (COM & LPT). If XR21V1410 USB UART (COM5) is displayed, the
USB-to-serial driver has been installed successfully.

Setting terminal parameters

To access the device through the console port or USB console port, you must run a terminal emulator
program (TeraTermPro or PuTTY) on the configuration terminal. For information about how to use a
terminal emulator program, see the program's user guide.
The following are the required terminal settings:
•
Baud rate—9600.
•
Data bits—8.
•
Stop bits—1.
•
Parity—none.
•
Flow control—none.
