### UART console

#### Connecting the adapter to the device

To display the console via UART an RS232 → USB adapter needs to be connected to the pins of the connector shown on the picture below.

#### Configuring COM port

A serial port terminal needs to be configured with following configuration:

<table border="1" id="bkmrk-bits-per-second-1152" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 49.7531%; height: 127px;"><colgroup><col style="width: 50.1099%;"></col><col style="width: 50.1099%;"></col></colgroup><tbody><tr style="height: 35.3906px;"><td style="height: 35.3906px;">Bits per second

</td><td style="height: 35.3906px;">115200</td></tr><tr style="height: 29.7969px;"><td style="height: 29.7969px;">Data bits</td><td style="height: 29.7969px;">8</td></tr><tr style="height: 29.7969px;"><td style="height: 29.7969px;">Parity</td><td style="height: 29.7969px;">None</td></tr><tr style="height: 29.7969px;"><td style="height: 29.7969px;">Stop bits</td><td style="height: 29.7969px;">1</td></tr></tbody></table>

 Then, booting from the chosen source should be realized according to the [instruction](https://doc.redisage.com/link/143#bkmrk-page-title).

### SSH console

#### Finding an IP of the device  


The device's IP can be obtained via 2 methods:

- connecting to the UART console and inputting the “ip a” command when logged as root or other user
- using the joystick shown in the picture below the IP can be displayed on the front panel display

#### Configuring COM port

The SSH terminal needs to be configured with the IP of the device. Then, booting from the chosen source should be realized according to the [instruction](https://doc.redisage.com/link/143#bkmrk-page-title).
