3. Application Notes
3.1 INIT* Pin Operation
Each CB-7000 module has a build-in EEPROM to store
configuration information such as address, type, baud rate and other
information. Sometimes, the user may forget the configuration of
the module. Therefore, the CB-7000 has a special mode named
“INIT mode”, to help user to resolve the problem. The “INIT
mode” is setting as Address=00, baudrate=9600bps, no checksum
To enable INIT mode, please follow these steps:
Step 1. Power-off the module.
Step 2. Connect the INIT* pin with the GND pin.
Step 3. Power-on the module.
Step 4. Send command $002(cr) in 9600bps to read the
configuration stored in the module’s EEPROM.
Refer to “7000 Bus Converter User Manual” Sec. 5.1
and “Getting Started” for more information.
3.2 Module Status
PowerOn Reset or Module Watchdog Reset will set all
outputs to the PowerOn Value. The module can accept the host’s
command to change the output value.
Host Watchdog Timeout sets all digital outputs to the Safe
Value.The module’s status (read by command ~AA0) will be 04,
and an output command will be ignored.
