3.4.1 Diagnosis using a terminal program
If Windows HyperTerminal is used, previous activities, which may
also have arisen from other communication instances, are
displayed outside the visible window but can be viewed in the full-
screen mode. You should therefore set the view in the Terminal
window in the
View menu to Fit to Window Size.
•
Set and configure the serial interface to be used for the terminal
program:
•
Disconnect the operating voltage.
•
Set the DIP switch on the IE-GPRS-I/O to 0-1-0-0.
•
Either select an existing connection from the saved connections or
create a new connection and select it.
•
The terminal window remains empty.
•
Once the connection has been established successfully, the
message Connected is displayed at the lower margin.
•
Connect the supply voltage.
•
The status LED lights red; the diagnostic data are transmitted to the
terminal.
•
Once the status LED lights green, the data transfer is completed,
and the diagnostic data are visible in the terminal window.
•
To reinitiate the data transfer, disconnect and then reconnect the
supply voltage.
