5.1.3 Configuring Receiver Communications
The Radionics receiver can be connected to a host computer and can communicate through B.A.S.I.S. in one
of two ways:
• Direct connection of the host machine and the receiver using a NULL modem cable
• Connection of the receiver through a Lantronix box
If a LAN connection will be used, configuration of the communication settings in the Lantronix box will
differ from configuration for use with BEST hardware.
Baud Rate Default value = 4 Corresponds to baud rate of 1200
Data Bit Default value = 8 Corresponds to byte size of 8
Parity Default value = 0 Corresponds to parity of NONE
Stop Bit Default value = 1 Corresponds to 1 stop bit
Link Test Default value = 5 Corresponds to heartbeat interval of 5 seconds
Header Default value = 1 Corresponds to start character of 1
Trailer Default value = D Corresponds to end character of D
