Additionally, you can group devices together, schedule various operations, and set alarm notifications.
For example, you can set an alarm to send a notification if a device disconnects or remains connected
longer than a specified period.
Some things to note about using Remote Manager:
n Devices must be registered in a Remote Manager account before you can access them.
n To minimize network traffic, Remote Manager uses caching. As a result, device settings can be
out-of-sync between the device and the settings viewed on the console.
n Device information refreshes on demand when the device is connected, and refreshes
automatically when a device connects.

Web interface
Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family devices provide a web interface for configuring and
monitoring devices. See Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family web interface.
Note Not all configuration options provided by the command-line interface (CLI) appears in the web
interface. If you need to configure more advanced options, see the Accessing the command-line
interface for instructions on accessing the CLI.
Accessing the command-line interface
You can configure Digi devices by issuing commands from the command line. The command-line
interface allows direct communication with a Digi device.
To access the command line from the Digi Device Discovery utility, click Telnet to command line.
For example, you can issue the following command from the command line to set general serial
configuration options:
#> set serial baudrate=9600 flowcontrol=hardware
The command-line interface provides flexibility for making precise changes to device configuration
settings and operation. It requires you to have experience issuing commands and access to command
documentation.
You can access the command line through telnet or SSH TCP/IP connections or through a serial port
using terminal emulation software such as Hyperterminal. Access to the command line from serial
ports depends on the port profile in use by the port. By default, serial port command-line access is
allowed.
See Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family command-line interface for more information on this
interface. See the Digi Connect® Family Command Reference on www.digi.com for command
