The HSM Console port can be configured while the HSM is in online, offline or secure state.
Enter CC <Return> (Configure Console) to initiate the following example in which user input is shown underlined. The Console baud rate is to be changed to 9600, and the word format is to be changed to 8 data bits, no parity and one stop bit.
Example:

In response to the prompts, enter the number of the
desired option or <RETURN> for no change.
Console baud rate: (current value = 1) 6 <Return>
Console word format: (current value = 2) 4 <Return>
After completing the procedure, reset the HSM by turning the keylocks to the online position and pressing the RESET button on the front panel. The new values do not take effect until this has been done.
The new settings remain operational (even after software updates) until the user changes them, or there is an alarm (in which case they return to default values).
The default settings for the Console port are:
9600 baud,
8 data bits,
1 stop bit,
No parity.
