7. PC Setup with Use of the Operator
Software OS6.x
You can apply the full set of functions of the UF251 converter when using a PC and our operator
software OS6.x for setup of the unit. The software is available for free download under
www.motrona.com

Connect your PC to the converter using a serial RS232 cable like shown in section 3.4 of
this manual. Make sure the cable only uses pins 2, 3 and 5. Pins 2 and 3 must be
crossed.

Run the OS6.x software and you will see the screen shown below.

In case your text and color fields should remain empty and the headline says „OFFLINE“,
you must verify the setting of DIL switch positions 1 and 6 and check your serial
settings. Select „Comms“ from the menu bar to check for serial settings.
Ex factory, all motrona units use the following serial default settings:
RS232, Unit No. 11, Baud Rate 9600, 1 start bit, 7 data bit, parity even, 1 stop bit

If the serial settings of your unit should be unknown, you can run the „Scan“ function
from the „Tools“ menu to find out.
