SERIAL SETTINGS

Figure 5: Serial Settings

Interface

Select the type of serial interface that will be used. Valid selections are
RS422/RS485 4 WIRE and RS485 2 Wire. Do not select RS232.

Baud Rate

The unit and all attached serial devices must agree on a speed or baud rate to
use for the serial connection. Valid baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800,
9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200.

Data Bits

Indicates the number of bits in a transmitted data package. The default is 8.

Parity

Checks for the parity bit. The default is None.

Stop Bits

The stop bit follows the data and parity bits in serial communication. It indicates
the end of transmission. The default is 1.

Flow Control Out

This setting is not used.

Modem Control Out

This setting is not used.

Protocol

Select the desired Modbus protocol to be used: RTU (binary) or ASCII. Default
is RTU.
