AXB-EM232 Enhanced Master RS-232 Controller

Installation

Setting the internal jumpers

Some RS-232 devices require that the bus be terminated at 100 ohms. Follow these steps if your

device requires this termination.

Discharge the static electricity from your body.

2.

Unplug the two-pin power connector.

3.

Remove the two screws on the front panel.

4.

Remove the front panel, and slide the circuit board out of the enclosure.

5.

Remove the jumper on pin trio E1 from pins 2-3 and place it on pins 1-2 (FIG. 2).

6.

Replace the board in the enclosure. Then, replace the front panel, refasten the two screws, and

plug in the two-wire power connector.

Setting DIP switches

Configure the device and programming communication ports' baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and

parity. Use the eight-position DIP switches on the front panel to set the communications

parameters.

!

RS-232 PROGRAM DIP switch - Use the eight-position RS-232 Program DIP switch to

set the communications parameters for the PROGRAM port.

!

RS-232/422 DIP switches - Use the two eight-position RS232/422 DIP switches to set

communications parameters for controlling the RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 devices.
