Multi-Tech Systems FR111 Data Port Configuration, Mode Asynchronous/Synchronous, Speed

5.3Data Port Configuration

This dialog box allows you to configure the data port. You will be able to set the parameters required for the successful operation of the port.

Mode Asynchronous/Synchronous

This allows you to set synchronous or asynchronous parameters required for transferring data between the MultiFRAD and the data port device. The data port can operate either in Asynchronous (UART) mode or Synchronous (HDLC) mode. Choose the Mode option that meets your site requirements. Both data port modes are discussed in the following sections.

Sync Mode Parameters

The following parameters are modifiable when the device connected to the data port connector on the back of the MultiFRAD 100-Series is a synchro- nous device. To change a parameter, click on the option button to be activated. To change a parameter using a drop down menu, click on the drop down arrow and a drop down menu displays the new parameters. Click on the desired parameter.

Speed

The Speed parameter needs to be set to match the speed of the sync device. When the data port is connected to a synchronous device, the baud rate is from 300 bps to 56K bps. The default port speed is 56K bps.
