RS232:
No configuration of the IBUC1+1 is required for proper RS232 operation. Connect a
suitable cable to connector J1 for the A IBUC and connector J8 for the B IBUC. The
RS232 port uses ASCII protocol and a fixed baud rate of 9600 for communication. On
the host computer set the serial port settings to the following: Baud rate to 9600, data
bits to 8, parity to none, stop bits to 1, and flow control to none. The IBUC can be
accessed using a terminal program on the host computer such as HyperTerminal. Hit
enter several times and you should see the “IBUC>” prompt. Type CPE=1234 and the
IBUC> prompt should return. The IBUC is now ready to accept commands.
Following are two examples, which use the default settings. If you need to reconfigure
these settings, this describes the sequence of events:
To configure TCP/IP do the following:
A SIDE IBUC:
CIA=192.168.1.21 // IP Address
CIB=192.168.1.22 // Other IBUC IP Address
CIG=192.168.1.1 // IP Gateway
CIM=24 // Subnet Mask
CIP=23 // Telnet Port
B SIDE IBUC:
CIA=192.168.1.22 // IP Address
CIB=192.168.1.21 // Other IBUC IP Address
CIG=192.168.1.1 // IP Gateway
CIM=24 // Subnet Mask
CIP=23 // Telnet Port
To configure RS485 do the following:
A SIDE IBUC:
C4A=1 // RS485 Address
C4D=20 // RS485 Delay
C4R=9600 // RS485 Baud rate
If ASCII mode is desired type
C4M=0 // RS485 Mode (Not factory
default)
If Legacy mode is desired type
C4M=1 // RS485 Mode
B SIDE IBUC:
C4A=2 // RS485 Address
C4D=20 // RS485 Delay
C4R=9600 // RS485 Baud rate
If ASCII mode is desired type
