Programming WindLDR
When using the user communication function to communicate with an external RS232C or RS485 device, set the commu-
nication parameters for the MicroSmart to match those of the external device.
Note:
Since communication parameters in the Function Area Settings relate to the user program, the user program must be down-
loaded to the MicroSmart CPU module after changing any of these settings.
