The Communications menu lets you set up the following communications:
•
RS-485
communications for daisy-chain communication of the circuit
monitor and other
RS-485 devices.
•
RS-232
communications for point-to-point communication between the
the circuit monitor and a host device, such as a
PC or modem.
•
Infrared Port
communications between the circuit monitor and a laptop
computer (available only on the
VFD display).
•
Ethernet Options
for Ethernet communications between the circuit
monitor and your Ethernet network when an Ethernet Communications
Card (
ECC)ispresent.
Each of these options is described in the sections that follow.
Each
POWERLOGIC device on a communications link must have a unique
device address. The term communications link refers to 1–32
POWERLOGIC
compatible devices daisy-chained to a single communications port. If the
communications link has only a single device, assign it address 1. By
networking groups of devices,
POWERLOGIC systems can support a virtually
unlimited number of devices.
