Operation

Figure 8: Open Configuration Window

Refer to Connect’s help file by selecting the Help | Contents menu. Ensure you can see the Console
and ASCII Messages windows by selecting them from the View menu.

When the receiver is first turned on, no data is transmitted from the COM ports except for the port
prompt. The console window displays a port name:

[COM1] if connected to COM1 port,

or

[COM2] if connected to COM2 port,

Any of the above prompts indicate that the receiver is ready and waiting for command input.

1. You may also have to wait for output from receiver self tests. For example, on start-

up, the OEMV family receiver is set to log the RXSTATUSEVENTA log ONNEW on
all ports. Refer to the OEMV Family Firmware Reference Manual for more details.

2. If you find that Connect is unable to locate your OEMV family receiver, try using a

different COM port to communicate to the receiver. Once communication has been
established, issue the command FRESET STANDARD. You should now be able to
use your original communication port again.
