Configuring Unit Properties

Using the Unit Properties window, you can configure the unit‘s communication and security properties in addition to general unit properties such as name, type, and country code. The Unit Properties window automatically opens when you manually add a unit to the site. You can also right-click the unit icon in the site pane and click Unit Properties.

To configure Unit Properties

1.Type a descriptive Unit Name in the space provided. The Unit Identification and Firmware Version will be supplied by the unit when a connection is made.

2.If you have already established a connection with the site, the Device

ID will be assigned. Otherwise, select the Device ID that matches the ID you assigned the unit via the front-panel LCD menu.

Device IDs ensure the software will sync up with the proper unit when there are multiple XAP 400s on a network.

3.Select the Unit Type (default is slave). See page 12 for more information.

4.Select an input, output, or processing channel to be the Default Meter on the front panel meter LED when a channel is not specifically selected.

5.Select the Meter Refresh Rate, which determines how quickly the XAP 400 updates meter information (default is 100ms; range is 50-1000ms).

6.Select the country where this product is being used from the Country Code list.

Warning: The country code must be set correctly to ensure that the unit operates properly when connected to the telco network and complies with the country’s telco requirements. Changing this code to a country other than the intended country of operation might cause the XAP 400 to be non-compliant and inoperable.

7.Click the Comm tab. The Baud Rate and Flow Control settings are supplied by the unit when a connection is made. These settings are changed using the Site Properties window (see page 23).

8.Set the Serial Echo (default On) and the Serial Mode (default Text). Serial Echo echos back commands sent over the XAP 400 network. The serial mode determines the format in which the commands return—text or binary. The mode defaults to Binary when G-Ware is connected and to Text when dis- connected. Contact technical support for instructions on using Binary mode.
