In the configuration Web pages, enter the IP address in the field to the left of
the colon. Enter the port number in the field to the right of the colon.

Multicast Port

Web Parameter:

Multicast Address & Port in the Multicast Settings section of the Serial
Setup page.

Network Type:

Both

Default Setting:

Blank

Options:

Any valid port number between 0 and 65535.

Description:

The port used if the serial port is set to Multicast mode.

In the configuration Web pages, enter the IP address in the field to the left of
the colon. Enter the port number in the field to the right of the colon.

Serial Baud Rate

Web Parameter

Baud Rate in the Serial Setting section of the Serial Setup page.

Network Type:

Both

Default Setting:

19200

Options:

300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200

Description:

The actual baud rate for the transceiver’s data port. This setting is the
communication rate between the transceiver and the instrument to which it is
connected, and is independent of the baud rate for the other transceivers in the
network. It is also independent of the other serial port on the transceiver. Set
the baud rate to the highest level supported by the device to which it is
connected. With a poor radio link, however, this may actually result in slower
data communications. For example, a pair of transceivers may be used in an
application to send data from remote process instrumentation to the engineer's
computer. In this application, the baud rate for the transceiver on the
instrumentation might be set to 9600, and the transceiver on the engineer's
computer might be set to 57,600.

Serial CD Mode

Web Parameter:

CD Mode in the Serial Settings section of the Serial Setup page

Network Type:

Both

Default Setting:

Normal

Options:

l

Normal - CD is asserted when a TCP connection to the associated port is
made, and de-asserted when the TCP connection is closed. Most serial
devices use this option.

l

Keyed - CD asserts 500 µs before transmit, and de-asserts 1 ms after the
transmission of the first bit of the last byte of data. This option should be
used with serial devices that require the CD line to be asserted prior to the
