NS-Link Device Driver Configuration
Configuring COM Port Properties
This section discusses COM port configuration procedures for DeviceMaster NS-
Link ports. If you want to change the starting NS-Link COM port number on the
DeviceMaster, see
Configuring Device Properties on Page 38.
If your application does not set COM port properties, use the Device Manager to
access Ports (COM & LPT) to change the port parameters. If the application sets
COM port properties, those settings take precedence over Windows COM port
settings. The exception to this guideline is if you use the Override and Lock Baud
Rate to option.
Use the following procedure to change NS-Link COM port settings on a
DeviceMaster port or ports.
Do not connect RS-422/485 devices until the appropriate port interface
type has been configured in the driver. The driver default port setting
is RS-232.
1. Open Comtrol Drivers Management Console ( Page 29 ).
2. Highlight the appropriate DeviceMaster.
3. Highlight the first port you want to configure.
