4.1.2 RS Interface
Code 0 to 2
This parameter specifies the RS interface to be utilized when serial ports are
used on the serial expansion module (Ports 1 to 3). The codes are as follows:
0=RS-232
1=RS-485
2=RS-422
4.1.3 Rx DB Start
-1 or 0 to 3896
This parameter specifies the starting location in the internal database where the
received data will be stored. The buffer holds 130 words, however, the first three
words of the data area define the sequence number, last write byte count and
the Rx message length. If the parameter is set to -1, the port will not receive
data. Refer to Receive Data (page 10) for detailed information on Rx data
structure.
4.1.4 Tx DB Start
-1 or 0 to 3896
This parameter specifies the starting location in the internal database where the
transmit data will be stored. The buffer holds 130 words, however, the first three
words of the data area define the sequence number, last write byte count and
the Rx message length. If the parameter is set to -1, the port will not transmit
data. Refer to Transmit Data (page 10) for detailed information on Tx data
structure.
4.1.5 Baud Rate
Baud Rate Value
This is the baud rate to be used on the port. Enter the baud rate as a value. For
example, to select 19K baud, enter 19200. Valid entries for this field include: 110,
150, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 28800, 38400, 57600 and 115.
4.1.6 Parity
None, Odd, Even
This is the Parity code to be used for the port. The coded values are as follows:
None, Odd, Even.
