The drives have the following characteristics:
CFW-05, CFW-07, CFW-09, SSW-03, SSW-04, MVW-01:
Address, type, firmware version, rated voltage, rated current.
CFW-08, SCA-04, SCA-05, SSW-05:

FUNCTION
Configures Serial Port.
DESCRIPTION
Serial number of the port: 1...16 (COM1...COM16). It is the number of COM that will realize the
communication between drive and SuperDrive.
Number of trials to transmit a telegram through serial port when an error is found: 1...10. This is the
number of trials to send a telegram when the drive is not answering, i. e., the SuperDrive will send the
telegram how often the number of trials will be.
Time-out to receive a telegram (ms): it is the time that SuperDrive waits to consider an error.
Modem delay time-out (ms): extra time considered during the serial communication when a modem is
used.
It tests the drive type and the firmware version before the telegram is sent via serial port: enabled or not.
SuperDrive checks if the connected drive is of the same type and firmware version of the project before it
starts the serial communication.
No other application can use this serial port simultaneously with the SuperDrive.
