PC Sw Remote Control Operations
The PDA500P can be controlled by a Remote Control Sw running on Pc, allowing to fully edit the all processes
available on each channel of the PDA500P.
More, once created the desired configurations and selected the desired processes, the complete set up can
be stored within the PDA500P and recalled later on as preset also when the unit is working in Stand Alone
Mode.
Once launched the Pc Sw Remote Control, previously installed on Pc (for the installation it is enough to run the
“Installation Sw” and to install also the USB driver which installation instruction are on the CD containing the
Remote Control Sw and coming with the PDA500P), the following screen shot will appear on the Pc:
The screen above is allowing to set the RS485 connection parameters.
With the
RS485: the RS485 connection has to be selected when the PDA500P is connected to the PC through the
RS485 line.
In this case the PDA500P will be controlled as one of a NET of chained units, being allowed the net control of
more units when using the RS485 connection.
In the RS485 mode (chosen by “checking” the RS485 button on the “Communication Port” frame), need to
assign the proper “COM” port in order to match the COM port assigned by the Pc to the “USB to Serial Port”
within the Device Manager window at the “Ports (COM&LPT)” directory.
When selected the RS485 connection, more PDA500P can be connected all together.
In order this to happen, need the all units (connected in net and up to 32) to be identified by DIFFERENT ID
number.
In order the units to have a different ID, need to pre-assign to the all units used in net a specific ID number.
When selected the RS485 mode, this can be done connecting one by one the units to be used in net and
assigning to anyone of them an ID through the “Configure ID Device” button.
When a Unit is connected, pressing the “Configure ID Device” it is possible to enter a window allowing to
assign to the unit the ID number.
NOTE: for avoiding problems is highly suggested to work with COM ports number within the 10.
