Changing the Control Card’s Serial Communication Parameters
1 Select a control card. In Ethernet mode, use the control card pane or enter the card’s present
IP address manually. In serial mode, run a cable to the applicable serial port of the control
card. See
How to Connect to a Router Control Card on page 20.
2 From the ‘Window’ menu, select ‘Router Serial Configuration’. The ‘Router Serial Configura-
tion’ window appears:
3 Click Read to acquire the control card’s settings. (Doing so might not be necessary, but it is
not harmful, at this step.)
4 In the ‘Router Serial Configuration’ window, make settings as follows:
The first 3 regions of this window are for connections between the router and a router con-
trol system. Only the last region, “Rear Diagnostic Port” has any relation to UniConfig:
a In the ‘Rear Diagnostic Port’ section, select a ‘Port type’ and ‘Baud rate’ from the drop-
down lists. Choose ‘RS232’ and ‘38400’. (These are the defaults.)
b Click Write to write changes to the control card.
WARNING
Do not click Read again before you have written the new data to the control card.
Clicking Read reads all settings from the control card, overwriting any changes you
have entered and does so without warning.
