When REMOTE ADJUST is enabled it is possible to adjust the RSM remotely. The UP, DOWN,
ENTER
commands are equivalent to physically pressing the keys on the front panel of the module
itself.
To change the status of REMOTE ADJUST ACCESS/LOCKOUT, select the REMOTE COMMUNI-
CATIONS
menu item. You will be prompted for the security code before any adjustments can be
performed.
REMOTE ADJUST ACCESS/LOCKOUT
is the second item inside the REMOTE COMMUNICA-
TIONS
menu. Pressing the Enter/Select key toggles between REMOTE ACCESS and REMOTE
LOCKOUT
.
8.2
Module ID
In order for the module to be identified for remote communication each module must be assigned
an unique identification number. Sequentially program each module in the system. Do not duplicate
the ID number on separate shelves. Select the MODULE I.D. entry mode via the REMOTE AC-
CESS
sub menu. The default address or programmed address will be displayed. Using the Up and
Down
keys increase or decrease the number displayed. The digits will wrap around ie. when the
number 99 is reached, pressing the Up key will cause the number to jump to 01. Press Enter/Se-
lect
to enter the desired number. The unit will display RETURN. If two modules have the same ID#
a line conflict will occur which will result in garbled communications.
8.3
Baud Rate
The unit has four programmable baud rate settings for use with the Serial Communications Inter-
face. Using the cursor controls the operator scrolls between 1200, 2400, 4800 and 9600 Baud
transmission rates. When the appropriate rate is chosen to match the external communications de-
vice (ie modem.) the operator presses the Enter/Select key.
8.4
Remote Disable
Remote access via the serial communications interface can be disabled if programmed. Disabling
the feature will inhibit remote interrogation of the unit.
8.5
Remote Adjust Disable
Depending on factory programming some units are able to receive remote adjustment of all levels
similar to local operation. Consult factory for complete information on the operation of this feature.
