vice Interface
The transponder antenna can be parameterized via the monitor program. To be able
to call up the monitor program, a connection to the antenna must be established via
the serial interface. Then a terminal program must be started, see 8.1 „Connecting
the Antenna to a Computer“ on page 31 and 8.2 „Configuring the Terminal Program“
on page 32. The monitor program can then be called up in the terminal program.
In the monitor program you can configure the system menu-driven. To use the mon
-
itor program, you must know which protocol is set in your antenna. The different
transmission procedures are:
The cahnges of the data rate mode are described in section 10.2.5 „(S)erial Output“
on page 52.
10.1 Starting the Monitor Program
How the monitor program is started differs depending on the currently active proce

dure. In the delivery state, that is
Monitor only
.
10.1.1 Procedure Monitor Only
If the antenna is set to the procedure
Monitor only
, the monitor mode will be started
10 s after the system is activated. In this case you do not need to transfer any files
and can go directly to chapter 10.2 „Using the Monitor Program“ on page 50.
10.1.2 Procedure 3964R or Procedure Transparent
If you have set the antenna to procedure
3964R
or
transparent
, the serial interface
is used as data interface (see 10.2.5 „(S)erial Output“ on page 52). You can then still
call the monitor program from a PC. For this purpose, a command to switch to mon
-
itor mode is transmitted. In this case, you need some configuration files (small text
and HyperTerminal configuration files) to start the monitor program.
You can download the configuration files in the latest version from our Internet serv
