Configuring SLC 5/01 and SLC 5/02 Processors
APS versions 2.0 and later support DH-485 point-to-point communication. You can
connect APS to the SLC 500 processors using a 1747-PIC Interface Converter, a
1770-KF3 module, or 1747-KE module. A 1747-AIC Link Coupler is required for
DH-485 network communication.

The parameters that must be configured for online communication are explained
below.
Note The SLC 5/01 and SLC 5/02 processors store their node addresses and baud rates in
word S:15. We recommend making these parameters part of your user program.
This prevents unauthorized (or unintended) alteration of your program. Refer to the
system status file in the Instruction Set Reference Manual for more information
about word S:15.
Node Address
Each device on the DH-485 network must have a unique node address. The default
node address for APS is 0, and the default for the processors is 1. To change a
processor node address, write a value between 1 and 31 using the Who function.
The change is applied immediately.
Baud Rate
Each DH-485 network device must have a common baud rate. The table below
shows the available baud rates. You must cycle power to apply the new baud rate.
Processor Baud Rate
Fixed and SLC 5/01 9600 or 19200
SLC 5/02 1200, 2400, 9600, or 19200
