• The baud rate for the Gemini is set at 9600. Future releases of Gemini firmware will
offer additional baud rate choices. Check the Compumotor web site
(www.compumotor.com) for information on new software releases.
• The Gemini serial port contains connections for both RS-232 and RS-485 communi-
cation. The Gemini drive will automatically switch between RS-232 and RS-485
mode depending on which connections in the port’s 9 pin D-connector are active.
See wiring diagrams.
• Some RS-232 cables use hardware handshake signals that are used by the RS-485
pins. The RS-485 interface will automatically disable itself if this is detected. If this
occurs, you must reset the drive to re-enable the RS-485 interface.
