Baud Rate Use SEL to toggle between the available baud rates. The baud rate must match that of
the host computer. Available baud rates are:
4,800; 9,600; 19,200; and 38,400.
Note: Effective with Software Versions 1.97 and higher, the communications
screen has been revised as shown below:
The termination setting should be ON if TYPE is set to RS-232, or if TYPE is set to RS-
485 and only one PS-6144 controller is in the multi-drop network. Setting the termina-
tion to OFF in these configurations may cause inaccurate RPM readings.
If multiple PS-6144 controllers are connected in an RS-485 network, termination should
be set to OFF on one and only one PS-6144 controller.
The termination setting in this screen is independent of all DIP switch settings. Use the
SOFTWARE VERSION function to determine version number.

Background The PS-6144 controller can store up to 48 programs in its memory. The Default Pro-
gram is the program that controls the output channels when terminals 1–8 of TB 3,
Figure 7, are “off.”
The Active Program is the program number that is currently controlling the output
channels. If there are program select inputs on TB 3, those inputs will determine the
Active Program, and the Default Program will be ignored. If no hardware inputs are
“on,” the Default Program will become the Active Program.
For installations where the program select inputs on TB 3 are not used, the Default
Program will always be the Active Program.
This function displays the current Default Program and allows you to select a different
one.

Injury and property damage hazard may occur due to changes in machinery op-
eration. Program the Default Program with settings that will eliminate this haz-
ard in the event of sudden activation.
