Figure 18. DRX Setup, Port Setup Table
The following options need to be set up for each of the DRX ports being used:
»
Enabled; Marks a port as active or not active.
»
Baud; Sets port’s baud rate to match the sensor baud rate. Bits, Stop Bits, Parity and
Handshake; Configures the port to match the incoming sentences from the sensor.
NOTE: You must COMMIT or these settings will be lost.
NOTE: Port assigned to sensor in the ‘Sensor’ tab.
TIP: F5 (refresh button) should be pressed if there is any doubt in data
consistency between the Webpage and the DRX.
The monitor check box can be selected to display the incoming sentences on the
specific port. This can be used to identify if the port is configured correctly and the
sensors are outputting the correct data.
