Connecting to the Max 410 through a Serial 
Cable 
This section explains how to connect to the Max and 
obtain its DHCP IP address. The remaining configuration 
tasks can then be completed more easily via the Max Web 
Manager
 
NOTE: For the Max 410 units, LAN settings 
can only be configured using this method. 
Using the HyperTerminal Emulation Program 
For this procedure you will need a standard serial cable 
(D-sub 9-pin, male-to-female, straight-through connection) 
as shown in Figure 5, and a PC running the 
HyperTerminal terminal-emulator program (or an 
equivalent), which is included with Microsoft operating 
systems. It is usually found in the Programs menu, under 
Accessories
 
 
Figure 5 – Serial Cable Connection 
1.  With the power to the Max 410 turned OFF, 
connect the cable from the unit’s serial port to 
one of the PC’s serial ports. Note which of the 
PC’s serial ports you are using. 
2. Launch HyperTerminal and set up a new 
connection.

port, and set the serial communication
