Serial Command Console

The cLAN has a basic serial console that allows you to set the configuration to factory default values or to change the password in case you've forgotten the original one.

To enter the command mode you must connect your computer to the cLAN using a RS232 cable using serial terminal software (Like Hyperterminal) . We suggest you to use Exemys terminal software that you can download from this link http://www.exemys.com/console
