Purpose 

This function sets the communications type, controller address, and baud rate for 

communicating with a host computer.

Screen 

 

TYPE:485 ADR: 1<
   BAUD: 9600

Communications Type: RS-232 or RS-485

Address: 0-255

Baud Rate:  4800, 9600, 19.2Kb, 38.4Kb

Type 

Use SEL to toggle between RS-232 and RS-485 communications on units shipped with 

date code 9549 or newer (default setting is RS 485).

Address 

The address must be unique for each controller installed on a network. This address 

is used by a host computer to identify and send information to a particular controller. A 

PLuS controller will ignore incoming information if the address field of the communication 

packet does not match the address of the controller. 

 

The address set through COMMUNICATIONS programming takes effect only when 

the DIP switch shown in Figure 13 is set to an address value of zero. Whereas the DIP 

switch can set a maximum address of “7,” the COMMUNICATIONS function can set 

addresses ranging from 0-255.

 

Use the numeric keys and ENT to program the address.
