Chapter 2: Configuration the Port Configuration Table (A016_COM)

The A016_COM table provides information for communication ports, which are used by the C3000/C0300 DPA. It contains one record for each communication port configured to customize the communications related settings for the C3000/C0300 DPA. The fields contained in the table are described in the table below:

Field

 

Range

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Port ID

 

COM1 – COM7

 

ASCII name which defines the communication port name in the device.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baud Rate

 

110, 300, 600, 1200,

 

 

A016-1 DPA actual baud rate cannot be changed and is set to 9600 baud.

 

 

 

 

However, this setting can be used to change the RTS on time (pre

 

 

 

1800, 2400, 4800,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

transmission delay).

 

 

 

7200, 9600

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RTS on time = Pre-TX Char * 8000 / Baud Rate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Default setting should be 9600.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pre-TX Char

 

0 to 500

 

 

The number of Mark characters (8 bits of 1 = 0xFF), which is sent prior to

 

 

 

 

 

 

each message transmission. Note that the last character send prior to each

 

 

 

 

 

 

message is 0xFE to provide a start Space for master synchronization.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Post-TX Char

 

0 to 500

 

The number of Space characters (8 bits of 0 = Chars 0x00), which is sent

 

 

 

 

 

 

immediately after each message transmission before dropping the carrier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TPTM Bias

 

-32767 to 32767

 

The fine tuning (in 0.5 milli-seconds) of the remote turnaround delay time

 

 

 

 

 

 

that allows time compatibility with different systems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TRX Bias

 

-32767 to 32767

 

The fine tuning (in 0.5 milli-seconds) of the remote time at end of received

 

 

 

 

 

 

message that allows time compatibility with different systems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Comm Fail Output Point

 

Any valid system

 

 

The system control DO point number, which is to be latched on when

 

 

Digital Output point

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

communications fail. The control point is in the on state (contact closed)

 

 

 

or Undefined (-1).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when communications have failed, and in the off state (contact open)

 

 

 

 

 

 

when communications are restored. The high entry limit is confined to the

 

 

 

 

 

 

highest control point number configured in the system. The feature can be

 

 

 

 

 

 

disabled by setting this to Undefined (-1).
