Application Note: Accessing the Root Password of an ENVIROMUX-SEMS

Steps to Access the Root Password of an ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x Unit:
  1. Connect a serial cable between a PC and the console port of the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x Unit. Have a Hyperterminal (or other serial com application) open and set to current serial settings of the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x Unit (default is 9600). To test the connection, hit "enter" and a message requesting a password should be seen on the Hyperterminal (just as a test).
  2. Use the Discover tool to detect the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x in the network. This requires that the PC where the Discover tool is ran and the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x are on the same physical network. (A cross-over CAT5 cable between PC and the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x will also work.)
  3. In the Discover tool window type 1.2.3.4 in (30 mm) all three fields (IP Address, Default Gateway and Subnet Mask) and press Apply. This will cause the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-x unit to print the current root password on the serial console (HyperTerminal) between two vertical bars (like |admin|). The IP settings will remain the same, and not change to 1.2.3.4.
