Ethernet (E-series) and Wireless (W-series) modules
The broadcast feature sets the Ethernet SeaI/O (E-
series) module’s TCP/IP to RS
-485 translation data
rate independently of the SeaI/O module itself. If you set the data rate to 115.2K bps via a MaxSSD
broadcast command, both the RS-485 port and the Ethernet port will respond thereafter to 115.2K bps,
as expected. However, if you reset the SeaI/O module, by rotating the rotary switch clockwise one
complete revolution, the RS-485 port will reset to 9600 bps and no parity, but the Ethernet port will remain
unaffected. To restore communications, broadcast another set data rate and parity command (9600 and
no parity) via MaxSSD.
