h1. CTU Console

The CTU each have a DB-9 serial port with a two RS-232 UART on them.

* One UART on pins 2+3 (standard DB-9 RXD/TXD) attached to the EQCP

* One UART on pins 8+9 attached to the RSS 

There are rumours about a third UART for the CCCP on the same connector.

h2. ECQP Boot up

During boot, there are no log messages.  Only after boot has completed, the following information

is printed:
