DB - RS-485 Port Control
Purpose
Change the communication parameters of the RS-485 bus.
Format
DBxyz
Range
x = 0 to 7 Baud Rate, see
y =l to 5 Unused
z =l to 2 Unused
Default
DB411
Recommended Setting.
Use as needed.
Description
This command changes the communication parameters of the RS-485 bus. Currently only
the Baud Rate is changed, but all parameters are still required.
If the DB command is not set to the same baud rate as the CB command, than the
Master/Slave triggering is not reliable.
When changing the DB command, confirm the change
by immediately following the DB change with a CK command (see CK command).
The DB command is not affected by the CR command once the CK command has been sent (see
