Securing the Configuration (Optional)
The Monico Gateway gives a user the option to lock-down the configuration securing it from unauthorized
extraction. The <Link><Support Upload> command can be used to instruct the Gateway as to whether or
not it should include the information necessary to support database uploads when sending a database to a
target device. This setting is stored in the database, and can thus be configured on a per-file basis.
Supporting upload will slow the download process somewhat and may fail with extremely large databases
containing many embedded images, but it will ensure that, should you lose your database file, you will be
able to extract an editable image from the device.
Note that by default, Support Upload is enabled on all
Monico configurations however, if you choose to have Support Upload disabled and lose your database file;
you will not be able to reconstruct your file without starting from scratch. It is therefore
IMPERATIV
E that a
Master Copy be properly maintained when Support Upload is disabled.
Adjusting Serial Port Settings
By default, the Monico Gateway has three serial ports including two RS-232 ports and an RS-485 port.
Monico View II can be used to configure and/or adjust the communication settings for any of the serial
ports. For example, Figure 12 shows the default Modbus RTU Master Communication settings when
interfacing to a Modlon Gateway as 38400, 8, N, 1. If instead you wished to change the baud rate to 9600,
you would simply highlight the Modlon device and change its baud rate to 9600 and then upload the
changes to the Gateway.
Note that additional serial ports can be provided as an option on custom
applications.
