The
Master settings
box in the left side of the page allows you to choose the
serial port of the personal computer the RD6 unit is connected to (
COM
drop-
down box) and then set the configuration parameters. Serial port settings in the
personal computer must compulsorily match those in the connected Lika device.
Default serial port settings as set at the factory by Lika Electronic for all RD6
Modbus positioning units are the followings:
RD6 Modbus
Serial port settings
Default value
Baud rate
9600
Byte size
8
Parity
Even
Stop bits
1
To configure the serial port of the RD6 device refer to the “4.4.2 Setting the
Baud rate and Parity bit (Figure 7)” section on page 22.
Then set the node address of the device the personal computer is connected to
through the
Slave settings
box (default value for all RD6-Modbus positioning
units = 1). To set the node address of the RD6 device refer to the “4.4.1 Setting
the node address: Node ID (Figure 7)” section on page 21.
Now you are ready to establish the connection to the Slave: press the
CONNECT
button on the top of the page.
