Terminal – digital external control via RS232
For digital external control using the RS232 serial port execute the following steps for the
basic Corival:
1.
Connect the Corival to the external control device (i.e. ECG system, PC) using a
correct RS232 cable
2.
Switch on the ergometer and select the menu TERMINAL on the display.
3.
Be sure that the correct protocol has been selected under the menu SYSTEM
PARAMETERS / SETTINGS / RS232 PROTOCOL
For a list of available protocols and ECG system, we refer to the user guide or your local
dealer. If you usually control your ergometer from an ECG system in the TERMINAL
MODE, you can set this mode as default startup menu. The Corival is now ready for digital
external control. Another option to control the ergometer from a pc is with the Lode
Ergometry Manager (LEM, article 92890X) software. This uses the Lode 38k4 protocol.
