Micromod Micro-DCI: 53IT5100A Indicator/Totalizer - Manual (Page 55)

Table 4-9. Communication Module
Purpose: This module is used to configure the Datalink port parameters (e.g., baud rate, parity
selection, etc.).
Title Symbol Data-

Attribute
Instrument
Address IA B001 0 It identifies the address of this instrument on the Datalink
network. Each unit connected to the Datalink network must
have its own unique address. Valid addresses are from
0 - 31.
Baud Rate BR B002 253 This datapoint value designates the baud rate (data transfer
rate) of the Datalink network. The baud rate must be the
same for all of the instruments connected to the same
Datalink network. Datapoint values and their corresponding
baud rates are as follows:
Value Baud Rate Value Baud Rate
255 28800 9 28800
254 14400 8 14400
N/A N/A 7 19200
253 9600 6 9600
250 4800 5 4800
244 2400 4 2400
232 1200 3 1200
208 600 2 600
160 300 1 300
N/A N/A 0 110
No Parity CP L256 0 This datapoint indicates if parity generation and checking
should be turned on or off. It is set to 0 for even parity
serial byte protocol. It is set to 1 for no parity protocol.
No Byte
Stuffing CB L258 0 When set to a 1, this datapoint disables the standard
communication protocol feature which inserts a 00 (NUL)
byte after every 7EH (SOH) that is not the beginning of a
message. (This permits user written communications
software to determine the number of bytes to expect in a
response message.) It must be set to 0 when using
the
Micro-DCI
communications software or equipment.
Datalink
Disable DLD L257 0 When set to 0 , it permits full Datalink communication
capabilities. When set to 1, it disables Datalink
communication capabilities.
