Configuring apc master switch network power controller
I am having a heck of a time trying to configure this apc master switch network power controller (I think first gen?)PDU/trying to get it to communicate with a modern PC. I have bought an APC 940-0024C Smart Signaling Cable, DB9 Male to DB9 Female serial cable and tried to use a serial to USB adapter to connect it to my laptop to use putty to connect to it with no luck. No connections are found in device manager.
My question is - how do I get this to connect to a modern day PC? What hardware do I need to buy? I want to configure the IP on it so I can use the web UI to manage it. Thanks
