A Quick Start Configuration Guide can be found in section 1.2. Section 1.2 is an overview of the
Installation process. The Installation process is very simple. However, the modules can be used to
interface with a variety of devices. So, we offer here an expanded detailing of the Installation
process with a variety of scenarios for your information.
2.2.1: Install Communication Software
2.2.1: Install Communication Software
n
Nexus Communicator or Nexus Programmer (Shareware) can be used to communicate with the I/O
Modules.
Nexus Programmer can be downloaded at no cost from the Electro Industries website,
www.electroind.com
. Nexus Programmer provides communication between the I/O Modules and a
PC and/or a Nexus meter.
Nexus Communicator can be purchased from Electro Industries by visiting our website,
www.electroind.com
, or calling our National Headquarters at 800-645-6342. Nexus Communicator
provides all the communication of Nexus Programmer plus additional memory features, such as
logging. In either case, simply follow the instructions on the installation screens until the software
is successfully installed.

This step is
NOT REQUIRED
unless the user wants to install
more than one of the same type of
module in a group
or the user wishes to change the Device Address or other settings. Each module
is programmed with a factory-set address shown in Table 2.1. The Device Address as well as Baud
Rate and Transmit Delay can be changed using the steps here.
When programming the modules,
the modules must be separate
(but attached to a power source);
otherwise, they will answer to the same address. Simply program the module BEFORE mounting in
a group or unfasten, program, then refasten the modules.
To program a module, follow these steps:
1. Connect
a single I/O Module, power source
and RS-485/RS-232 Converter to a PC
or a single Module to Nexus 1250/1252
(power source & converter) to a PC.
2. Click on the Nexus Communicator (or
Programmer) Icon
(located in a file on
your PC) to open the software program.
The Main screen for Nexus software will
appear.
3. Click the Connect Icon.
The Connect screen appears.
