As you follow the installation steps, refer to the numbers in Figure 2-3.
1.
Select a location.
The MSS should be positioned close to the device it will be servicing.
Since powering down the unit will terminate any active sessions, it
may be desirable to place the server in a location secure from user
access. Also be aware of the unitÕs environmental operating limits
and cabling requirements. See Appendix D for details.

2.
Connect the MSS to a serial device.
The MSS1 and MSS100 are designed to connect to an RS232-based
serial device. Connect one end of a serial cable to the DB25
connector on the front of the MSS. Connect the other end of the cable
to your serial deviceÕs DB25, DB9, or RJ45 port.

Initially, you may want to connect a terminal to the serial port. The
terminal will display any error messages and will allow you to view
commands as you configure the MSS.

NOTE:
The serial port is initially set for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, one stop
bit, and no parity.

3.
Connect the MSS to the Ethernet.
The MSS1 can be connected to a 10BASE-T Ethernet network. The
MSS100 can be connected to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T Ethernet
network. Connect the appropriate twisted-pair Ethernet cable to the
RJ45 connector on the back of the MSS. The MSS100 will autosense
whether the attached Ethernet cable is 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T.

The MSS1-T2 can also be connected to a 10BASE2 Ethernet network.
Connect a 10BASE2 thin coaxial cable to the BNC connector on the
back of the MSS. Also attach a valid network terminator if required.
The MSS1-T2 can autosense which of the two Ethernet interfaces has
been connected and operate accordingly.

NOTE:
DO NOT connect cables to both MSS1-T2 interfaces at the same
time. If you would like to change interfaces at a later time, be sure
to power down the unit before switching Ethernet cables.

to power down the unit before switching Ethernet cables.
4.
Provide power to the MSS.
Attach one end of the power cable to the MSS and plug the other end
into a wall outlet. There is no power switch on the MSS; power will
come on automatically when the unit is plugged in. Be sure to
handle the unit carefully once it is plugged in.
