			The Raritan PDU has a built-in serial to USB adapter. So to connect, simply plug the USB cable into the USB-B connector on the PDU and the other end into your computer. On Linux systems, this will create the '<span class="code">/dev/ttyASM0</span>' serial port device.

			{{note\|1=The [[Build an m2 Anvil! - Detailed\|m2 ''Anvil!'']] installs <span class="code">screen</span> on both nodes and ''Striker'' dashboards.}}
