3.1. Program Manager

The UPT1000F is a terminal without a keypad. Input and control can be achieved in two ways:

• Connecting a USB keyboard to the USB2 port using a USB adapter.
• Connecting to a PC via console. Follow the steps below to connect the PC and UPT1000F for control.

Steps for PC Console Connection:

1. Power on the UPT1000F and connect COM Port 1 to the PC.
2. Run a console application program such as “TeraTerm” or “PuTTY” on the PC.
3. Select "Serial port" and set the COM port. The baud rate should be set to "115200".

(Image description: Screenshot of Tera Term serial port setup window with COM1 selected and baud rate set to 115200.)

If the "Program Manager" screen does not appear on "Tera Term" or PuTTY", press any key on the keyboard to refresh the screen.
