Modifying serial port parameters

When you use the console port to access the system, make sure the port parameters are consistent with

the serial port settings on the configuration terminal, including the baud rate, data bits, parity check, stop

bits, flow control, and emulation. If the settings are inconsistent, communication will fail.

You can change the baud rate from the BootWare menus. HP recommends that you change the default

baud rate (9600 bps) to a higher baud rate for faster file transfer before downloading a Comware image

file with XMODEM through the console port.

To change the baud rate of the console port:

1. Enter 1 in the BASIC-BOOTWARE menu.

Enter your choice(0-5): 1

===============================<BAUDRATE SET>===============================

|Note:'*'indicates the current baudrate |

| Change The HyperTerminal's Baudrate Accordingly |

|---------------------------<Baudrate Available>---------------------------|

|<1> 9600(Default)* |

|<2> 19200 |

|<3> 38400 |

|<4> 57600 |

|<5> 115200 |

|<0> Exit |

============================================================================

Enter your choice(0-5):

2. Enter the number that represents the baud rate you want to choose. For example, enter 5 to set the

baud rate to 115200 bps.
