KIPSO1 MNIPO8 UNIPO4 WMM001 WUM001 MNIP16 UNIPO8 WMM108D WUM108D UNIP16 WMM116D WUM116D User s manual Package Content Serial Supervisor User s Manual RJ 14 Cable FE CE SN lt gt Please read this manual thoroughly and follow the Installation procedures to prevent any damage to the module or any connecting device PP5 NK9700 001 Printed in Taiwan Overview This optional device the Serial Supervisor can be cascaded up to 16 Serial Supervisors by connecting to one unit of KIPSO1 MNIP UNIP or WMM WUM series controlling and monitoring up to 16 devices with the RS 232 serial port These RS 232 ports may be connected to computers routers or other serial devices which require interactive login On Figure 1 its shown the Serial Supervisor and RJ 14 cable physically There are two RJ 14 connectors and one DB 9 female connector in the Serial Supervisor And RJ 14 cable is a 1 to 1 pin out cable by using four conductor telephone wire _ P sZ I x WA EE SS M i ly S Figure 1 The Serial Supervisor amp RJ 14 Cable Serial Supervisors are connected to the RS 232 ports of the various devices which you need to access Each Serial Supervisor is very small Serial Supervisors are connected together in daisy chain fashion The whole connection is shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The Serial Supervisor receives power and data over the daisy chain A simple RS 485 proto
2. 12 anonanennna e Appendix Use four conductor telephone wire and RJ 14 connectors These are the connectors used on telephone handsets between the phone base and the thing you hold in your hand next to your head Some references call them 4P4C connectors 4 positions 4 conductors and regular RJ 11 s are called 6P4C connectors 6 positions 4 conductors although only 2 are actually used In this application we require a 1 to 1 pin out This means if you hold up two of the RJ 14 ends both oriented the same way you want pin one from left say to be connected to pin one from left of the other one This is the opposite of normal telephone wires which are reversed pin out If using silver telephone wire you will see a seam on one side and not the other When you insert the wire into the modular plug for crimping one end should have the seam up and the other down Although counter intuitive this yield 1 1 pin out 13 Limited Warranty IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DIRECT VENDOR S LIABILITY FOR DIRECT OR INDIRECT SPECIAL INCIDENTIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES LOSS OF PROFIT LOSS OF BUSINESS OR FINANCIAL LOSS WHICH MAY BE CAUSED BY THE USE OF THE PRODUCT EXCEEDS THE PRICE PAID FOR THE PRODUCT The direct vendor makes no warranty or representation expressed or implied with respect to the contents or use of this documentation and especially disclaims its quality performance merchantability or fitness for any particular pur

X where X is a channel number 1 to 5 in above example or the name of a channel you can connect interactively to any Serial Supervisor The same RS 232 command menu is available using Ctrl Shift 11 PEE Other Reminders Hardware handshaking CTS RTS is required at speeds over 9600bps It is always enabled here but your serial device may require setup to enable handshaking on the other end of the connection For UNIX systems the command is stty crtscts lt dev serial port The Serial Supervisor network is a simple RS 485 multidrop network running at 115 200 bps Therefore it follows that their will not all Serial Supervisors may be outputting inputting data at max speed 115 200 all the time We rely on the fact that this is intended for interactive login and not all the channels will be busy at the same time We use hardware handshaking to limit the output rate of individual channels Up to four users may connect at once to the same serial port All of them may type commands at any time and all see the same output All users have equal access to all channels A maximum of 16 Serial Supervisors may be attached at once It is safe to un plug and re plug the Serial Supervisor network at anytime No data will be lost and new nodes will be auto detected within 15 seconds If disconnected and reconnected log entries will not be lost but they are inaccessible while unit is unplugged

Use IPMI When IPMI option is enabled addition columns appear in the main config table Follow the link for Sensor report to control the indicated machine A sensor report for all sensors on the BMC is shown on this page and the following Chassis Control commands are available at the top of the page Hard Reset Power Cycle Turn ON Turn OFF Pulse diag int Causes NMI fault might reset machine Graceful OFF Tries to tell the O S to shutdown Unfortunately most of these commands are not implemented by current IPMI systems You will find most of them don t work in all circumstances Remote SSH login It is possible bypass the web page login and login directly using SSH Using a SSH client not provided many free ones are available connect to port 22 of the system With appropriate user name password you will be able to login to the Linux operating system running on our device Use the connect command to connect to any Serial Supervisor connect l list all units attached and their baud rates for example 10 connect l 5 active units Ch Name Serial Settings 1 none 01e1e088090000b2 115200 bps 8N1 2 none 0180078909000042 115200 bps 8N1 3 none 0184e0880900009a 115200 bps 8N1 4 none 01f6f28809000093 115200 bps 8N1 5 none 01300989090000e7 115200 bps 8N1 Using connect
