10.1.5 Communications Menu
•
Ethernet
Option is used to view and set the IP address and Subnet Mask of the
transmitter.
•
Serial Options
Used for setting up the ‘Baud Rate’ and the serial communications to
‘RS232’ or ‘RS485’.
•
HART
Settings are used for configuring the protocol when using HART.
Default is for single device addressing.
•
Reset Comms
Used to re-initialize the communications ports without loosing data
history (as would happed by re-initializing the transmitter). This can
be used to restart acquiring data if, for example, the ethernet cable
was removed from the ethernet port while the StBasic program was
still running.
