Selecting communication baud rate
You can use this parameter to set the desired baud rate for the communica-
tion interface. You can select the following options:
▪ 9.6 kilobaud
▪ 19.2 kilobaud
▪ 38.4 kilobaud
▪ 57.6 kilobaud
The baud rate of 57.6 kilobaud is only active for communication interfaces
RS232, RS485 and fiber-optic cable.
A baud rate of 57.6 kilobaud cannot be used for Ethernet.
This display is only provided for the following interface protocols:
▪ DNP3
▪ IEC 60870-5-101
▪ IEC 60870-5-103
▪ MODBUS ASCII/RTU
▪ ABB SPA
To set the communication interface baud rate, proceed as follows:
1. Press > Configuration > Continue > Continue >
Comm. interface Press > until the desired parameter is displayed.
ð Baud rate comm. CIC1.
2. Press or to set the option you want.
3. Press .
ð The baud rate is selected.
Assigning network address
You can use this parameter to assign a network address (IPv4) to the de-
