Figure 6: RS-232 configuration of the host PC side in PIMikroMove™

If you have established a connection and want to change the currently

active baud rate, proceed as follows:

1 Use the IFC command in the command entry facility of the

program, e.g. by sending IFC RSBAUD 57600.

2 Close the connection.

3 Open the connection again with the baud rate you just set with IFC

(in the example 57600).

The currently active RS-232 baud rate can also be checked/set on the

E-517 front panel in the

COMMUNICATION display screen (p. 21). This

screen can be accessed by the

trackball (p. 22). The front panel setting

corresponds with the baud rate setting available over the PC interface.

NOTE

It is recommended that the host PC has a "genuine" hardware RS-232

interface. If the host PC uses a USB-to-serial adapter instead, data

loss could occur during communication, especially when transferring

large amounts of data.
