Connecting to a PC and powering the VDR
To configure the 5100/6100 VDR for the first time, you must connect an ASCII-based terminal,
a PC running terminal-emulation software (such as HyperTerminal), or a modem. After
initialization, you can set up the 5100/6100 VDR for remote management through telnet sessions
or via the Internet through a web browser. See the data reference portion of the documentation
CD-ROM for details.
The following procedure describes how to connect a terminal or PC to the 5100/6100 VDR
The following procedure describes how to connect a terminal or PC to the 5100/6100 VDR
console port using a 9-pin to 9-pin serial cable, which has a 26 AWG rating. If the terminal or PC
has a 25-pin port, you also need a 9-pin-to-25-pin adapter.
The 5100/6100 VDR automatically power cycles when sufficient power is detected.
