Configuration
5.2. System SetUp Ports
Serial Ports 1 and 2 are reserved as SetUp Ports, and will always permit password
protected access to Supervisor commands. Therefore, Ports 1 and 2 cannot be
configured as Buffer Mode Port or Passive Mode Ports, because these port modes do
not permit access to command mode. In addition, the Supervisor Mode cannot be
disabled at Ports 1 and 2.
5.3. Configuration Menus
Although the Web Browser Interface and Text Interface provide two separate means for
selecting parameters, both interfaces allow access to the same set of basic parameters,
and parameters selected via one interface will also be applied to the other. To access
the configuration menus, proceed as follows:
• Text Interface: Refer to the Help Screen (/H) and then enter the appropriate
command to access the desired menu. When the configuration menu appears, key
in the number for the parameter you wish to define, and follow the instructions in
the resulting submenu.
• Web Browser Interface: Click the appropriate button on the left hand side of the
Home Screen (Figure 5.2) to access the desired configuration menu. To change
parameters, click in the desired field and key in the new value or select a value from
the pull-down menu. To apply newly selected parameters, click on the "Change
Parameters" button at the bottom of the menu or the "Set" button next to the field.
The following sections describe options and parameters that can be accessed via each
of the configuration menus. Please note that essentially the same set of parameters and
options are available to both the Web Browser Interface and Text Interface.
Note: Configuration menus are only available when you have logged into
command mode using a password and port that permit Supervisor Level
commands.
