Updating the UDM Receiver With the Serial Protocol
The UDM-RX02 Receiver which will issue the relevant serial commands to the device must be
connected to the UDM-0404’s relevant port (via Cat5/e/6 cable). Once the Serial Protocol and
commands have been created, follow these steps to update the connected UDM Receiver with the new
protocol:
1. On the Status page (see FIG. 15 on page 23), click on the port number (hyperlink) to which the
serial device is attached. This invokes the Port Configuration options for the selected Port.
2. Click on the Protocol drop-down menu (FIG. 89).
3. Select the Serial protocol which this UDM Receiver will download. This may take a few minutes
depending on how many commands are within the protocol.
4. A message will appear saying “Loading Protocol – Please wait”. Once this has disappeared the
Serial protocol has been downloaded to the UDM Receiver. Commands can now be sent from the
Hub WebConsole to the serial device.
Remember the serial commands are stored within the UDM Receiver.
It is the Endeleo Receiver which will issue the serial command over the serial cable
connected between the Receiver and the device.

A new table for this device’s Serial control is what is actually being created. When the
administrator decides to create further commands particular to this serial device they
will be stored within this table e.g power off, power on. If new commands are to be
created in future ensure the correct Serial Protocol has been selected before defining
new commands to ensure commands are stored in the correct table. There is one
protocol/table per UDM Receiver.
