8.1.1
Use of fully wired serial cables
Use the cable as described in previous section and connect to the RS232 port of the
Tankvision Gauge Link and connect the other end to a laptop PC with a terminal emulation
program (e.g. Hyperterminal).
Set the terminal emulation program to the following communications settings:
Use the command
DEBUG(return)
to print the raw GPU (Enraf) or TRL/2 (SAAB) data on
the fieldbus. If the fieldbus is TRL/2 then the command
S(return)
may be required as the
TRL/2 messages maybe too long so the S Command will Shorten the data printed to hyper-
terminal.
If for any reason a firmware update is required, links (ISP and RST) within the Tankvision
Gauge Link need to be fitted and the use of flash magic to update the firmware. Details of
firmware updates will be supplied if firmware updates are required in the future.
