7.5.9 RS232
V2 Transmitters offer many options for remote monitoring and control. All parameters avail-
able on the front panel are available remotely.
To connect to the unit via RS232 connection, connect a standard serial cable between the
transmitter and the PC, and use the following settings for the COM port:
• Baud rate - Selected Baud rate set in the Unit (default: 19200bps)
• Data Bits - 8
• Parity - None
• Stop Bits - 1
• Flow Control - Hardware
In order to change these settings in the unit:
1. Navigate to System ⇒ RS232.
2. Enable or disable the feature by adjusting the Enable parameter.
3. Select the required Baud rate for the connection.
7.5.10 Log
V2 Transmitters have three methods of logging. Regardless of the log location, the format
is the same. V2 Transmitters will output a list of important parameters, all meter settings and
alarm and trigger statuses 2 minutes after a parameter change and then at hourly intervals.
These can be either received via RS232, UDP or saved to a file on the internal memory of the
transmitter. Each method can be enabled or disabled. In order to enable/disable the differ-
ent logging methods, navigate to System ⇒ Log and set the different methods to Enabled
or Disabled.
UDP will send the log messages via UDP to an IP address. In order to changes the UDP settings:
1. Navigate to System ⇒ Log ⇒ UDP.
2. Set Enable to Disabled.
3. Set the IP address where the log message should be sent via UDP.
4. Set the Port number.
5. Set Enable to Enabled.
6. Ensure that the unit is connected to an Ethernet socket and Ethernet is set up correctly
to use this feature.
