Follow the directions in Chapter 2 for attaching your terminal to the Bridge 
Management Interface.  Under normal conditions, the prompt, “OEBM>” 
appears on the screen once you press [ENTER].  Table 5-3 lists some 
common Management Interface problems that may occur when the Bridge 
Module is first set up to communicate with the terminal.

Nothing appears on the screen.

Make sure the RS-232 cable meets 
the specifications listed in Appendix 
C.

Make sure the cable is securely 
connected to both devices.

Verify that the baud rates, data bits, 
and parity match for the terminal and 
the Bridge Module.

Characters appear on the 
screen, but are garbled.

Check the values of the 
communication parameters of both 
the Bridge Module and the terminal.

The SET command doesn't work.

Use the administrator password when 
logging on to the bridge.  This 
activates the SET command.  (Note 
that the MGMT LED turns on.)

The password doesn't work or 
you forgot the password.

Use the FORCE command to override 
password protection.

When you use abbreviated 
input, pressing [SPACE] does not 
complete the input.

Ensure that you entered enough 
characters for the Management 
interface to distinguish between 
different commands and options.
