˽

s – Causes each submenu LED to flash in sequence (this is the same as LED sequence

on the 510 menu). The sequence will begin playing upon reception, but may be inter-

rupted by a subsequent message.

˽

a – Sends a message to the Click 510 that causes it to send an ASCII sequence back (the

same sequence found in the ASCII sequence option on the 510 menu).

˽

t – Sends a message to the Click 510 that causes it to send an ASCII text message back

(the same message found in the ASCII text option on the 510 menu).

˽

m – Sends a message to the Click 510 that causes it to send back a menu featuring the

commands in this list (see Figure 7.6).

Baud Rate

Manual baud rate configuration is the third option presented in the menu selection process.

In some cases it may be more convenient to automatically discover the baud rate of a con-

nected sensor. If so, consider Autobaud, the next menu option.

Manual baud rate configuration uses a task instead of an operating mode. This means that

as soon as the baud rate has been chosen, the Click 510 will return to the previous operating

mode. For example, if you were using the Click 510 to perform a latency test then manually

set the baud rate, the device would return to Latency Test mode after the baud rate is set.

The yellow submenu LEDs cycle through the eight possible baud rates, first by glowing solid

and then by flashing, as shown in Table 7.4. Once you’ve reached the desired baud rate,

press the push-button once. By default, the device is set to 9600 bps, so when you enter this

mode the cycle will start on 9600 bps with the fourth LED glowing solid.
