2.4.2 Set Baud Rate
This menu configures the interface between the wireless data transceiver and the
Navigator IIm microprocessor. It is suggested that all settings in this menu remain at
their factory defaults specifically:
Parameter
Setting
Baud Rate
115,200
Data Parity
0
MODBusRTU
0
RS232/485
0
Setup Port
3
TurnOffDelay
0
TurnOnDelay:
0
FlowControl
0
This baud rate (and flow control setting) is automatically changed when the user modifies
the baud rate from the Navigator IIm Serial Port Configuration Menu (See
Section 2.2
).
2.4.3 Edit Call Book
The call book is a method of explicitly specifying the other transceivers with which this
unit can communicate. Intuicom Wireless Networks operating in Point-To-Multipoint
Mode generally use a Network ID to identify a group of transceivers that can
communicate (Network ID parameters are located under the Edit Multipoint Parameters
menu
Section 2.4.6
). Thus for most situations all call book entries are left blank 000-
0000.
If the call book is utilized, the Network ID must be set to 255. List call book entries to
specify which units, and through which repeaters, communication is possible. The
callbook is required if the unit is to be operated in Point-To-Point Mode – with one
Navigator IIm operating as a Point-To-Point Master, and another operating as a Point-To-
Point Slave. In this case, each unit would need the other’s ID in position 0 of the
callbook.
2.4.4 Edit Radio Transmission Characteristics
When item (3) is selected from the Radio Configuration menu the screen in
Figure 2-11
appears, which allows the user to modify the radio transmission characteristics of the
transceivers. As stated in the warning on the screen, these parameters are for the user
who has a good understanding of the principles of radio data transmission. They should
be changed only after consulting this manual.
Note:
When operating in Point-To-Point Mode the radio parameters set for the Point-To-
Point Master will override the settings for the Point-To-Point Slave and any repeater(s) in
the link for all but
RF Xmit Power
,
Slave Security
, and
Retry Time Out
parameters.
