Setting the RS-232/RS-485 Baud Rate DIP-switches
DIP-switches 5, 6 and 7 set the serial port baud rate in both Hardware and Software
modes according to
Table 4
.
Note:
In a multiple device configuration, all devices must be set to the same baud
rate.

When the DIP-switch is:
•
OFF, the unit is set to Hardware mode (default)
•
ON, the unit is set to Software mode
7.1.5.1 Hardware Mode
In Hardware mode, the:
•
RS-232 data is passed from any input to all outputs
•
TP-185
routes the reply from the output port defined by the DIP-switches 2, 3
and 4 (see
Section 7.1.2
). For reliable operation, only one port can be defined
