SECTION 8 - RS232 COMMUNICATION
8.1 INTRODUCTION
The RS232 port on the front panel of the C-More
Control Box (Figure 3-1) can be interfaced to a
laptop computer or other suitable terminal using
a RS232 adapter cable. RS232 communication
can be accomplished using any “Dumb
Terminal” emulation, such as “Hyper Terminal”
which is included with Microsoft Windows. The
RS232 communication feature permits viewing
or changing of Control Panel menu options and
also provides access to data logs showing Event
Time Line, Fault and Sensor log displays.
8.2 RS232 COMMUNICATION SETUP
Regardless of the terminal emulation utilized,
the following guidelines must be adhered to
when setting up the RS232 communication link:
1. Baud Rate – The baud rates which can be
used with the C-More Control Panel are:
1. 2400
2. 4800
3. 9600 (Default)
4. 19.2K
Data Format – The program must be set for: 8
data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and either
Xon/Xoff or No flow control.
8.3 MENU PROCESSING UTILIZING RS232
COMMUNICATION
Viewing data logs and viewing or changing
Control Panel menu options using RS232
communication is accomplished as follows:
Start the emulator software program and ensure
that the specified baud rate and data
formats have been entered.
Press the Enter key on the laptop. An asterisk
(*) prompt should appear.
At the prompt, enter the valid RS232 password
(jaguar) in lower case letters and press
Enter.
“Welcome to Aerco” will appear in the laptop or
“dumb terminal” display with a listing of the
following available entry choices:
M = Display next Menu
D = Display menu items
N = Display next menu items
Cxx = Change item xx
F = Fault log display
S = Sensor log display
T = Time line display
L = Log off

The Level 1 password (159) must be entered to
change options in the Setup, Configuration and
Tuning Menus. The Level 2 password (6817)
must be entered to view or change options in the
