2.6 SETTING THE BAUD RATE

If the RS16x16HB is to be controlled through its RS232 port, it is important to

set the correct baud rate. One of four baud rates may be selected using positions 1
and 2 of the programming switch located on the rear panel of the RS16x16HB. Set
the switches as follows:

BAUD RATE

19200

1200
2400
9600

SWITCH 1

ON

OFF

OFF

SWITCH 2

All Baud Rates are 8 bit, no parity, one stop bit. Switches are ON when

pushed up (as viewed from the back of the panel)

The switches are read by the microprocessor only at power-up; for switch

configuration changes to take effect, cycle the power input to the RS16x16HB.

Switches 6-8 should always be off.

2.7 ANSWERBACK MODES

The user may choose between two modes of answerback: verbose and

nonverbose. Select the mode using position 3 of the programming switch located
on the rear panel of the RS16x16HB.

Position 3 ON is verbose, while position 3 OFF is nonverbose.

The switches are read by the microprocessor only at power up; for switch

configuration changes to take effect, cycle the power input to the RS16x16HB.

In the verbose mode, each time a routing command is sent, the routing

map will be reported on the RS232 line.

In the nonverbose mode, only the word DONE will be reported. In either

mode, an incorrect or meaningless command will cause the word ERROR to be
reported.
