12.2.1 DESCRIPTION
The 86xx series configuration software allows the 8620 controller to communicate with a PC. The computer can
be connected to the module either directly, via a modem (RS232) or via an RS485 link.
The operator is then able to remotely control the module, starting or stopping the generator, selecting operating
modes, etc. The various operating parameters (such as output volts, oil pressure, etc.) on the remote
generator can also be viewed.
The information contained in this manual should be read in conjunction with the appropriate module
documentation. This manual only details the operation of the communications software and how it should be
used. The operation of the module is detailed in its own relevant manual.
