NOTE:
USB is always active on the PS3037 (and the protocol is Modbus over the USB virtual
communications port).
NOTE:
If ViewPoint was installed first, it needs to be restarted following a RS-485 driver installation. If a
RS-485 port does not appear in the drop-down list, the RS-485 was not installed correctly.
1) Select
USB/RS-485 (MSTP)
as your communication type.
2) Select PS/PS3037.
3) When connecting with an RS-485, enter a base address that matches the switches on the
PowerScout. A USB connection ignores address switches. See
Setting the Network Address Switches
below.
4) When connecting with an RS-485, select
Modbus
or
BACnet
as your communication protocol. When
communicating over USB, whether the PS3037 is configured for Modbus or BACnet mode, the
PS3037 will communicate over the Modbus protocol.
5) Select the
PC COM Port
from the drop-down list. For a USB connection, select “COMxx DENT USB”
in the field, where “xx” is the port number. For an RS-485 connection using an RS-485 adapter,
select COMxx RS-485 Isolated Port (COMxx) where "xx' is the COM port number.
Default settings are used for the two remaining fields:
Data Bits
is 8N1 and the
Baud Rate
is 9600. When
BACnet is selected as your protocol an additional read-only field appears displaying the
BACnet Device
ID.
