Click on the Communication tab to view the communication parameters that you used to
establish default communications with your transmitter. You can reselect Baud Rate, Device
Address, Serial Protocol, Full/Half Duplex, even though you may have selected different
values to establish initial communications with your PC. You can also define a Custom
Recognition Character in lieu of the default *.
Ignore Output Items, Output Filter, Output Rate, CR (LF), RTS Type, Include Alarm Data,
Include LF, and Transmission Chars. These items only apply to data transmission by a
counter, not to operation as a remote display.
The Remote Display “C” data entry fields will appear if you have selected Rmt Disply C
under the Input+Display tab to allow data extraction from a longer data string. You can
specify:
• Start Char = the decimal ASCII character designating the beginning of a string.
• Stop Char = the decimal ASCII character designating the end of the string.
• Skip No. = the decimal number of characters following the Start Char to be ignored.
• Show No. = the decimal number of characters immediately following the ignored
characters to be displayed.
Example: *ABCD-123.45EFG#HIJK* etc.
Start = *, Skip = 4, Show = 7, Stop = #, data displayed = -123.45
For the list of 127 possible ASCII start and stop characters and the corresponding decimal
values to be entered, click on ASCII Char Table.
