Step 4 - Installing DL.CODE Configuration Program
Product Reference Guide 15
Step 4C - Serial Device Discovery
Starting from DL.CODE 1.4.0, serial port communication is supported for device
discovery and configuration. This allows dedicated serial communication models
to be configured through DL.CODE.
This feature is not enabled by default, so the first thing to do is to enable it
through the UI Settings window.
NOTE
Although this feature allows all devices to be configured through their Serial Inter-
face, be aware that transmission speeds and some DL.CODE features are limited
when using this interface. It is always advised to use the Ethernet interface whenever
possible.
NOTE
If you’re not sure of the Serial baud rate you can also check the Enable Automatic
Device Discovery box which for serial devices will try communication at all baud rates,
but only at No parity, 8 data bits;1 stop bit.
Enabling this parameter can notably lengthen Discovery time, therefore in general it
is better to disable it to increase Discovery efficiency.
1. From the main menu open the
Options>UI Settings window.
2. Click on the Global Settings menu
and scroll down to the Find Devices
tab.
3. Check the Enable Serial Device Dis-
covery box. Scroll down to see the
following selections.
4. Select the Serial communication
parameters according to your appli-
cation. Default is 115200.
