3.4 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
The following section provides detailed setup and configuration information for each section of the Matrix
Router. As explained previously, there are a total of six configuration areas for Matrix Router. The areas
are explained in the order of which they are displayed in the web user interface.
3.4.1 EIA-485 NETWORK
EIA-485 Network is used to configure each MS/TP communication port. Expanding this section will display
one or two MS/TP Network listings, depending on the product variant you are using. To configure each
MS/TP network, expand the MS/TP Network section and click Settings. MS/TP Network Settings provides
a method to allow users to setup and configure the MS/TP network port. This section is used to configure
the communication baud rate, a valid MAC address, and other parameters that control and optimize token
passing.
Similarly, a Status page is provided for users to view the current configured MS/TP network parameters
that the Matrix Router is using. The Status page is a read-only display, where as the Settings page is used
to configure the parameters.

Specifies the baud rate of the MS/TP network in which you are
connecting the specific EIA-485 network port onto.
The baud rate configuration for Matrix Router must match the
active baud rate of the MS/TP network you are connecting to.
Contrasting baud rates will result in a loss of communications
across the entire MS/TP network.
