Serial Page
Click the
Serial
link at the top of any of the main web pages to access the page shown in
. This page allows you to upload
and execute commands used for direct control of serial devices. Commands may be saved for future use and executed later. The
Serial Code
menu lists all saved commands. See
for option descriptions.
NOTE:
If the Port 50004/Serial Port is currently in use by another device, sending commands from the Serial page will always return
a No Data message and fail to send the commands. When Netlinx is enabled, it takes over this port (causing it to not be usable by
other devices).
