Setting Description
Port Serial port number for GC Controller.
The Model 700 and Model 500 with 2350A Controller (with the PC/104 COM 4A
board installed) the controller supports 8 ports (9 ports with the modem).
With the Multifunction board installed, COM3 is the assigned port.
Usage Defines port usage – such as a slave co nfig-uration (i.e.,User_Modbus,
SIM_2251), PC communication port, a Report, or Serial Port – as well as the
general type of serial communications protocol.
To accommodate installations that use Modbus registers and the SIM_2251
protocol along with a data acquisition system, MON2000 enables you to arrange
data values for a more effective polling.
Note that the contents of all SIM_2251 Modbus registers are predefined, and
the values for component variables are predetermined. However, a cross-index
to these predefined assignments can be developed.
With the Multifunction board installed, COM3 is the assigned port.
