SMART FUNCTION SETTINGS
5.1 Start Smart Function
The Switch has a smart function that you can use to manage your local area
network (LAN ) more effectively. You also can use the default setting to make
the Switch operate as a dumb switch.
If you want to use smart function, install the Switch as below:
Use the "RS-232" connector to connect the Switch to a computer. Connect
one (1) cable end to the Switch, and connect the other end to the computer's
"COM1" or "COM2" port.
Note: If your Windows program doesn't have a hyper terminal, you have to
install it first.

Execute the "HyperTerminal" program:

the Switch.

bits" to 8, "Parity" to None, "Stop bits" to 1, "Flow control" to None.

to continue. Now the computer can connect to Switch and use the user
