The configuration of SATELLINE-3AS radio modems can be easily changed. Simply by
connecting pin 12 of the D-connector to ground (GND) the radio modem will switch into
Programming Mode
. Serial port P
PORT 1 is used whenever the radio modem is in the
Programming Mode
. The serial port settings are 9600 bps, N, 8,1 (data transfer speed 9600
bps, no parity, character length 8 bits and one (1) stop bit).
SATELLINE-3ASd model contains push buttons and a LCD-display, which can be used to modify
configuration settings without the help of an external terminal device. The radio modem will
switch into
Programming Mode
by pressing the ”SETUP”(
¡
)button.
If the SL-command function has been activated active radio channel and addresses can be
changed without switching the radio modem into
Programming Mode
. Serial port settings will
remain as those defined previously when the radio modem was in
Programming Mode
.
9.1 Changing parameters using a terminal device
PORT 1 of the radio modem is connected to a terminal device or a PC, which is in terminal
emulation state. (This can be accomplished by using a suitable program such as the
SaTerm 3
program or the Windows™ Hyper Terminal program). Check the wiring of the serial port
connection cable. Terminal device serial port settings must be set to 9600 bps, N, 8, 1 (data
transfer speed 9600 bps, no parity, data length 8 bits and one (1) stop bit). MODE-pin (pin 12
of the D-connector of the radio modem) is then connected to ground (GND). Following this the
radio modem will transmit the following message to the terminal (certain configuration settings
might differ from the ones shown):
