Now you need to identify your COM port and set the baud rate.
•
COM Port – COM (short for “communication”) port 1 is the program’s de-
fault setting. You can switch to COM port 2 by pressing the F1 key on your
PC’s keyboard. Remember that the COM port setting must be available, and it
must correspond with the PC port that you connected the serial cable to.
•
Baud Rate – Set the baud rate by pressing the F2 key on the PC’s keyboard
and scrolling through the pre-set rates until the correct value appears. Use the
same rate you entered on the
VRO 300 SERIAL PORT screen. (Refer to Re-
mote Storage Program Operation.)
After the COM port has been identified and the baud rate has been selected, you
can begin storing
VRO 300 programs on your PC. (For more information about
creating, saving and deleting programs, refer to the Remote Storage Program
Operation section.)
