5.4  Communicating with the Host PC 

5.4.1 Setting 

the 

Transmission Speed of the CU-400 

CU-401:

 

Set the transmission speed to the same value as that of the BHT and host PC, by using the 
DIP switch. 

The DIP switch is located next to the power inlet connector on the side of the CU-401. 

(1)  Remove the protection sheet of the DIP switch from the CU-401. 

(2)  Set the selectors of the DIP switch as shown below. 

 

 

 

(3)  Reinstall the protection sheet. 

 

 

Do not set the DIP switch to any configurations other than one of the five shown above. 

When removing the protection sheet, take care not to let any foreign material get into the CU. 

 

CU-421:

 

The transmission speed is automatically determined by the host PC.
