Enabling RS232 communication
The RS232 CU Enable command lets you connect a PC to the control panel by means
of the optional RS232 card. This enables you to use the Configuration Utility (CU) to
program the panel and upload or download panel data.
Note: The RS232 CU Enable command times out (turns off) after four minutes of
inactivity, meaning that if the command is enabled but does not connect to the CU PC
within four minutes, the command turns off and must be reenabled.
To enable RS232communication:
1. If you are using a printer, disconnect the printer cable
from the RS-232 card.
2. Connect the configuration utility computer to the RS-
232 card.
3. Press the menu button and choose Program.
4. Choose RS232 CU Enable.
The RS232 CU Enable screen is displayed.
