Additional Settings
Some PC platforms may need keyboard response adjustment for initial Terminal Mode success. These
settings may be done via the PC Control Panel >> Keyboard Settings:
Fastest Repeat rate
Shortest Delay time
Fastest Cursor Blink rate
Connecting at 76800 Baud Rate
Because HyperTerminal does not support 76800 baud then after setting to 76800 the device baud rate
will remain at 9600 baud for HyperTerminal communication and switch to 76800 after Writing the new
baud rate and eXiting terminal mode.
To allow later terminal communication a device set with 76800 baud will operate at 9600 baud for the
first 5 seconds after a power-up. If no attempt to connect the terminal at 9600 baud is made within 5
seconds of a power-up then the device will automatically switch to 76800 for normal network operation.
Saving HyperTerminal Settings
For ease of connection it is recommended to save the HyperTerminal setup for each baud rate you may
wish to use with an easily recognised configuration name. For example:
HPECOM 24 (2400)
HPECOM 48 (4800)
HPECOM 96 (9600)
HPECOM 19.2 (19200)
HPECOM 38.4 (38400)
HPECOM 57.6 (57600)
Changing Baud Rate
After changing to a new baud rate the controller will not start running at the new baud rate until the
change has been Written (W). If setting a new baud rate via text file application download the new baud
rate will be applied immediately the download is completed (auto-Write).
In either case, after the Write action, you will need to reconnect the terminal program at the new baud
rate if you wish to continue the terminal session.
