Enabling RS232 communication
The RS232 CU Enable command lets you connect a PC to the control panel by
means of the optional RS-232 card. This enables you to use the Configuration
Utility (CU) to program the panel and upload or download panel data.
Note: The RS232 CU Enable command times out (turns off) after four minutes of
inactivity, meaning that if communication is enabled but the panel does not
connect to the CU PC within four minutes, communication is automatically
disabled.
To enable RS-232 communication:
1. If you are using a printer, disconnect the printer
cable from the RS-232 card.
2. Connect the configuration utility computer to the
RS-232 card.
3. Press the Menu button and choose Program.
4. Choose RS232 CU Enable.
