CAN USB-232 User Manual

2.3 Entering Configuration Mode

2.3.1 RS232 Interface:

To view the Configuration menu, first connect the CAN-232 serial cable to a PC running a monitor
program, such as Terra Term. Set the COM port parameters to 115200, 8, 1, None. The cable should be a
null-modem since the CAN-232 is wired as DTE.

2.3.2 USB Interface:

Use Device Manager to determine which port the CAN-USB module is assigned. Device Manager will
show the device as a USB Serial Port. To view the Configuration menu, first connect the CAN-USB cable to
a PC running a monitor program, such as Terra Term. Set the COM port parameters to 115200, 8, 1, None.
