2.2 USB Interface (COM2)
The USB communication port is connected using a standard USB cable with a type B connection to the relay and
type A to the PC.
The PC will require a suitable USB driver to be installed; this will be carried out automatically when the Reydisp
software is installed. When the Reydisp software is running with the USB cable connected to a device an additional
connection is shown. Connections to these devices are not shown when they are not connected.
The USB communication interface on the relay is labelled Com 2 and its associated settings are located in the Data
communications menu. When connecting to Reydisp using this connection the default settings can be used without
the need to first change any settings.
Access to the communication settings for the USB port is only available from the relay front fascia via the key pad
setting menu COMMUNICATIONS MENU.
