1. Establish connection with the SSPA by using Paradise Datacom Quick Start Cable and
PC’s RS232 serial port.
2. Start and configure Paradise Datacom Universal M&C utility. Make sure the M&C software
has steady connection with the SSPA (green light at upper left corner of Status screen).

4. Select “Terminal’ in selection box. A dialog window will appear prompting you to accept
the change in protocol See Figure 11-4.
