About the Edge system shell mode
To put the MS-E10 device into the debug system shell mode, plug-in the USB-to-MicroUSB cable. This makes the system shell
available at the controller's Debug port, at a pre-defined serial rate: 115200, 8, N, 1.
Using a terminal emulation program, such as PuTTY, you can login with platform credentials and access the system shell menu.
After changing platform IP address parameters, a reboot command from the menu is necessary, and you remove the USB cable.
The MS-E10 device reboots using the changed IP address parameters.
Apart from physical access to the controller, you need the following items:
A working USB port on your PC.
•
VCOM or similar PC software (such as PuTTY) enabling the USB port to emulate a serial port
•
A cable to connect your PC's USB port to the MS-E10 device's Debug port.
•

Save.
When you start PuTTY again to serially connect to the device, select this name and click Load.
