4.7 RS-232 SETUP
Use RS-232 Setup menu to set operating parameters of the serial I/O port. Settings include baud rate,
parity, data bits, line feed, network ID number and waiting period before a RTS time-out. Only activate
RS-232 output if you intend to transmit serial data; to avoid burdening system with unnecessary data
transferals while it is performing flow computations.
NOTE: The RS-232 stop bit implementation is fixed. If you are using a communication program,
such as Windows 3.xx Terminal or Windows 95/98/NT/2000//XP HyperTerminal, that in-
cludes a field for stop bits; select 1 stop bit.
4.7.1 BAUD RATE
The Baud Rate menu sets the asynchronous serial transmission data transfer rate of the RS-232 port
providing a selection of baud rates up to 38,400 baud. The baud rate must match the baud rate setting
of receiving external device. The factory-set baud rate is 9600.
To change the Baud Rate:
To access the [Baud Rate] option list press
Move the cursor to the required baud rate press
To store selection press . This moves the cursor to [Parity].
