3.2 Operating Instructions

GROUNDING - This unit should always be grounded through the protective

earth lead of the power cable.

Before connecting AC power to this unit, the mains plug should be inserted

only into a socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact. The

protective action must not be negated by use of an extension cord (power

cable) without a protective conductor (grounding). Interruption of the

protective (grounding) conductor (inside or outside the unit), or disconnection

of the protective earth terminal can render this unit dangerous.

Initial Setup



To begin configuring MBE:

1. Connect MBE to an ASCII terminal or a PC terminal emulator.

2. Connect the CBL-RJ45/D9/F/6FT control cable, supplied with MBE, between

the RJ-45 control port on the MBE front panel, and the DB-9 connector on the

terminal.

3. Set the terminal to work at any baud rate from 4.8 to 19.2 kbps, No Parity,

8 data bits, and 1 stop bit.

It is suggested to use 9.6 kbps.

For complete configuration details, see the LAN RANger Series Configuration

Guide.
