Annex: Data communication
13.1 Interfaces
13.1.1 RS 232 interface
RS 232 configuration
The RS 232 data communication interface has been designed for a cable
connection with 9-pin connector and a contact assignment of 1:1.
Setting the transmission speed:
• 9,600 – 57,600 baud,
• 8 data bits,
• 1 stop bit,
• no parity.
Data exchange is accomplished via a defined command sequence
structure (see below).
13.1.2 USB port (optional)
USB 1.1 configuration
As an alternative to data communication via RS 232 interface, the devices
can be equipped with the optional USB port. The USB port complies with
Standard USB 1.1 and is compatible with Standard USB 2.0 (full speed).
The USB port is operated as a virtual COM port. Therefore, the port
transmission speed can be changed within the defined baud rates (9,600,
19,200, 38,400, 57,600 baud).
Data exchange is accomplished via a defined command sequence
structure. The command sequences comply with the design of the RS 232
interface.
Installing the USB port with the virtual COM port:
If the USB port is to be used for data exchange between PC and
incubator, the USB port is installed as virtual COM port (USB
serial port) using the supplied driver.
The assigned COM port can be located in the Windows Device
Manager/Ports dialog box, e.g. USB Serial Port (COM5), and is
then defined as communication port in the Heracell 150 i & 240 i
program
(see chap. 13.8‚ pg. 145)
.
The driver can be run under the following operating systems:
WIN 2000, WIN XP, WIN VISTA.
