4: Configuration Using Web-Manager

Channel 1

Disable Serial Port

When selected, disables communication through the serial port. The serial port is enabled by default.

Note: This feature is not available on single port device servers.

Port Settings

Protocol

From the drop-down menu, select the protocol type for the

 

selected channel. The default setting is RS232.

 

 

Flow Control

Flow control manages data flow between devices in a network

 

to ensure it is processed efficiently. Too much data arriving

 

before a device is prepared to manage it causes lost or

 

retransmitted data. None is the default.

 

 

Baud Rate

The unit and attached serial device, such as a modem, must

 

agree on a speed or baud rate to use for the serial connection.

 

Valid baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600

 

(default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, and 230400 baud.

 

The default setting is 9600.

 

 

Data Bits

Indicates the number of bits in a transmitted data package.

 

The default setting is 8.

 

 

Parity

Checks for the parity bit. The default setting is None.

 

 

Stop Bits

The stop bit follows the data and parity bits in serial

 

communication. It indicates the end of transmission. The

 

default setting is 1.

 

 

Pack Control

Enable Packing

Select to enable packing on the UDS1100.

 

Two firmware-selectable packing algorithms define how and

 

when packets are sent to the network.

 

The standard algorithm is optimized for applications in which

 

the unit is used in a local environment, allowing for very small

 

delays for single characters, while keeping the packet count

 

low.

 

The alternate packing algorithm minimizes the packet count

 

on the network and is especially useful in applications in a

 

routed Wide Area Network (WAN). Adjusting parameters in

 

this mode can economize the network data stream.

 

Disabled by default.

 

 

Idle Gap Time

Select the maximum time for inactivity. The default time is

 

12 milliseconds.

 

 

Match 2 Byte Sequence

Use to indicate the end of a series of data to be sent as one

 

group. The sequence must occur sequentially to indicate end

 

of the data collection to the UDS1100. The default setting is

 

No.
