Enabling Relays & RS232 Data

Data must be enabled to activate contact closure CONTROL PORT I/O operation and RS232 data. Please see Appendix A for RS232 and Control Port Wiring information.

Configuring Control Port Contact Closure Operation

The Rules panel in the Toolbox Java and HTML5 Web-GUIs can be used to configure switch inputs and relay outputs. See Creating Rules to learn about configuring rules using the Java Toolbox Web-GUI, or read Creating Rules for instructions on using the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI.

Configuring RS232 Data

When Data is enabled the codec can be connected to external devices and transport RS232 data using the CONTROL PORT I/O on the left side panel of the codec. It is important to configure two settings:

1.Enable serial port flow control within the codec. Flow control regulates the flow of data through the serial port. If disabled, unregulated data will flow and some may be lost.

2.Match the serial port baud rate to the rate used by the device connected to the codec CONTROL PORT I/O. Ideally the settings on both codecs should match, or you could encounter data overflow issues.

To adjust these settings:

1.Press the HOME button to return to the Home screen, then tap Settings .

2.Navigate to System and then tap RS232 .

3.Tap Baud Rate to select from the baud rate options.

4.Tap the Flow Control On/Off  button to toggle between enabling and disabling this feature. Tap Save in the top right-hand corner of the TOUCH SCREEN to confirm the new setting. Note: Flow control is Disabled by default.
