2.3 Connection via serial interface
Prerequisite
There must be a serial interface (COM) on the PC from which the connection is to be made.
Settings
1. In STARTER, go to Project > Set PG/PC interface and select the Serial cable (PPI)
interface.
If this interface is not in the selection list, you will have to add it via Select before
proceeding any further.
Note
If you are unable to add the interface to the selection menu, you will have to install the
driver for the serial interface.
This is located under the following path on the STARTER CD:
\installation\starter\starter\Disk1\SerialCable_PPI\
The STARTER must not be active while the driver is being installed.
2. Enter the following settings. The "0" address and the transmission rate (e.g. 19.2 kbit/s)
are important here.
