11-2 Functions Common to All Slave Units
This section describes the functions common to all CompoNet Slave Units
and the procedures for using these functions.
The functions described in 11-2-1 Automatic Baud Rate Detection and 11-2-2
Hold/Clear Outputs are supported by Bit Slave Units with Compact Connec-
tors.
11-2-1 Automatic Baud Rate Detection
Description
The CompoNet Slave Units are automatically set to the same baud rate as the
Master Unit. It is not necessary to set the baud rate separately for any Slave
Unit.
The baud rate is set when communications is established with the Master Unit
after the power is turned ON. The baud rate setting is stored in memory until
the power is turned ON again or until the Master Unit baud rate setting is
changed.
