Step 4C - Serial Device Discovery
Starting from DL.CODE 1.4.0, serial port communication is supported for device discov-
ery and configuration. This allows dedicated serial communication models to be config-
ured through DL.CODE.
NOTE
This feature is not enabled by default , so the first thing to do is to enable it through the
UI Settings window.
NOTE
Although this feature allows all devices to be configured through their
Serial Interface, be aware that transmission speeds and some DL.CODE
features are limited when using this interface. It is always advised to
use the Ethernet interface whenever possible.
If you’re not sure of the Serial baud rate you can also check the Enable
Automatic Device Discovery box which for serial devices will try com-
munication at all baud rates, but only at No parity, 8 data bits;1 stop bit.
Enabling this parameter can notably lengthen Discovery time, therefore
in general it is better to disable it to increase Discovery efficiency.
