c. On the Master Control menu bar, click on the "Settings" menu bar option.
d. When the pulldown menu appears, click on “Connect Settings”, then "Baud Rate". The
display will now appear as shown in Figure 6-2.
e. Click on the baud rate setting which corresponds to the new external processor DIP switch
settings. After clicking the desired baud rate again click on the "Settings" menu bar
option and then click on "Connect to PCAP II Plus". If any error messages appear,
recheck COM port setting, Baud Rate setting, connections, and external processor DIP
switch settings.
f. Click on "File", then "Exit" to exit the PCAP II Plus Master Control program and save the
new baud rate setting.
3. After storing the new baud rate by exiting the Master Control program, test the new baud rate
as follows:
a. Switch on the PCAP II external processor. Make sure that the RS232 cable is properly
connected between the external processor and the PC.
b. Double-click on the PCAP II Plus Master Control icon to run the program.
c. Allow several seconds for the program to load and to initialize the external processor. The
message "Connected COM x" should appear in the Communications Box at the lower left
corner of the Master Control window.
d. Connect an audio signal (either analog or digital – make sure the correct INPUT SELECT
switch setting is used!) and adjust the input level so that the tricolor level LEDs indicate
GREEN.
If the Input Level bargraphs on the Master Control screen properly respond to the input signal, then
the hardware and software are correctly configured for the new baud rate.
