USE OF THE SWCA WITH TERMINAL EMULATION PROGRAMS

described in the following sections. A modem is required at both the inverters
and at the computer, with a phone line available to make the connection.

emulation” programs. Any computer that has available serial communications port
and terminal emulation software can communicate with the SW series inverter
using a cable and modem connection.
