B&B Electronics 485DSS manual Binary File Transfer

Example 1: To set the address to decimal 21 (15 hex), you would turn on switches 1, 3, and 5 (1 + 4 + 16 = 21).

Example 2: To set the address to 123 decimal (7B hex), turn on switches 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (1 + 2 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 = 123).

NOTE: It is important that the address you select is not already being used on the network!

Binary File Transfer

When transmitting binary files through the Distributed Smart Switch, it is possible that a string of characters could resemble a 485DSS command message. If this would happen, there could be a disruption in the transfer process and a loss of data. A simple solution to this problem is to change to a different baud rate before transferring binary files.
