Sbdconfig Software - Task Bar Functionality
1. Serial Port
•
Configure Serial Port
: When clicked, this option will open the settings for the serial port (Fig. 1). This is where a user can manage the
settings that connect a PC to the digital clock.
Located on the task bar of the Sbdconfig software, there are five options to choose from: Serial Port, Read Clock, Load Clock, Configurations, and
Version.
•
Save Configuration
: After a user sets the serial port’s settings on the Sbdconfig software, this option will save a particular configuration
to a computer in order to upload it to a different clock.
•
Save Configuration As:
If a user modifies the serial port’s settings, this option will save a copy of the reconfigured clock to a computer.
•
Load Configuration
: This option allows a user to upload a previously saved serial port’s configuration to the Sbdconfig software. Once a
digital clock is connected to a computer via the USB to RS485 converter, click the ‘Load Configuration’ option.
Note:
When any of the above options listed under the Serial Port tab are selected, they only apply to the Serial Configuration settings.
