Baud Rate (Communication Rate)

Follow these steps to select the PowerPad unit’s communication rate.

1. Highlight BAUD RATE with the Up/Down Cursor buttons, then press

Enter.

2. Choose from the communication rate values: 2400, 4800, 7200, 9600,

19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 with the Up/Down Cursor buttons.

3. Press Enter to apply the current sensor selection.

The Configuration menu is once again displayed on the screen.

TIP

In addition to the four current probe choices, there is an adapter selection. This
selection lets you use current probes that have a current output with the

PowerPad unit. The ratio for these probes can be programmed with this
selection. The primary current can be programmed from 5…2999 A. The
secondary current can be set to 1 or 5 A. Adjustment for the ratio is performed

in the same way as described on the previous page for the MN probe.

IMPORTANT

For transfer of data between the PowerPad unit and a computer, the

communication speeds must be identical on both sides.
