6. How to configure IR8200D?
Since IR8200D support both Primary / Secondary modes and other parameters which provide
flexibility for customer usage, the first thing needs to do is to make sure what host baud rate and
which protocol you require before chip is implemented on PCB. Therefore, ACTiSYS developed a
windows program named Comset_IR100SD.exe to let customer to configure IR8200D more easily.
Note: Comset_IR100SD.exe program is running under windows system (98, 98SE, Me, 2K and XP)
and work with com port, so if you want to configure IR8200D on PCB, you should wire all 6 host
signals of IR8200D to a DB9F connector, those wires are TXD, RXD, DTR, DSR, RTS and CTS. After
these done, you can change the configuration of IR8200D. Since customer may not want to wire
those signals to a DB9, we recommend that customer can buy our IR8200D evaluation board
(IR100SD) to test and configure before purchase. Please contact ACTiSYS to get the information of
IR100SD. Please see the following page, which shows how to configure by Comset_IR100SD.exe,
After any parameter is changed, you have press “send” button on every page you changed first then
press “Save Config into Flash”, then parameters are configured successfully.
The first page is to set the host baud rate and the hardware flow control,
