DIP Switches
A triple DIP (dual inline package) switch allows the Serial Server to
be placed into
Console Mode. When all three switches are moved into
the ON position the
Serial Server enters Console Mode, allowing
configuration of the
Serial Server (using an RS-232 connection
through the serial port on the ESP901 or Serial Port 1 on the ESP902)
from a PC running a terminal program such as
HyperTerminal. When
the
Serial Server enters Console Mode the Console Mode screen will
appear in the HyperTerminal program window. The serial port settings
must be 8-N-1 at 9600 baud.

HyperTerminal Window
When any of the DIP switches are switched back to the OFF position,
the Serial Server will revert to the mode it was in before Console
Mode.
