CS1822 / CS4824 RS-232 Commands

RS-232 Operation

Overview

The CS1822 / CS1824’s built-in bi-directional RS-232 serial interface allows

system control through a high-end controller or PC. RS-232 serial operations

in a CS1822 / CS1824 installation are managed via HyperTerminal sessions on

systems that are running Windows. In order to use this feature to send

commands to the CS1822 / CS1824, you must first download and install a

HyperTerminal application. For detailed instructions and information about

each of the commands provided in this manual, please refer to the CS1822 /

CS1824 user manual.

Setup

Install a HyperTerminal application on a computer that is not part of the

installation, which will be used to control the switch via the RS-232

connection. HyperTerminal applications can be download from the Internet,

and many operating systems are embedded with HyperTerminal applications.

Hardware Connection

Use a RJ-11 to DB-9 serial adapter (LIN5-04A2-J11G) to connect a

computer’s serial port to the serial port on the CS1822 / CS1824, as shown

below:

Note: The unit used in the diagram below is CS1824, the procedure for

connecting CS1822 is identical with fewer KVM ports.
