Starting a Control Session 
Once you have installed Optimux-34 and have completed the installation and 
operation procedures as described in 
Chapters 2
 and 
Chapter 3
, you can start a 
control session. 
³  To set the terminal communication parameters: 
1.  Connect the terminal to the 9-pin CONTROL connector. Run a terminal 
emulation program. 
2.  Set the default parameters of the terminal communication port to 8 bits per 
character, one stop bit and no parity bit. 
3.  Disconnect Optimux-34 from the mains, and then reconnect it to the mains. 
4.  Wait for about half a minute while the software is unpacking. Afterwards the 
System Test LED will be blinking in yellow. 
5.  While system test LED is blinking, press <.> at least four times until 
Optimux-34 detects the correct baud rate 
6.  Optimux-34 automatically detects and adapts itself to terminal baud rates of: 
9,600, 19,200, 38,400, 57,600, and 115200 bps. After detecting the correct 
baud rate, Optimux-34 displays the user name and password entry form. 
Preparing Optimux-34 for Control Session 
This section describes how to prepare Optimux-34 and the supervisory terminal 
for the control session. 
Optimux-34 includes a V.24/RS-232 asynchronous DCE port, designated CONTROL 
and terminated in a 9-pin D-type female connector. The control port continuously 
monitors the incoming data stream and immediately responds to any input string 
received through this port. The port requires straight cable for the ASCII terminal 
connection. The Optimux-34 control port can be configured to communicate at 
the following rates: 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 57.6, or 115.2 kbps (default 115.2 kbps). 
The word format consists of one or two stop bits and 8 data bits; parity is 
disabled. 
Any standard ASCII terminal (a “dumb” terminal or a personal computer running a 
terminal emulation application) equipped with a V.24/RS-232 communication 
interface can be used to configure Optimux-34. 
Appendix A
 details the pin 
assignment and control signal directions of the Optimux-34 control connector. 
Up to three users can connect to Optimux-34 simultaneously.
