Setup
2 - 16 ADPRO FastTrace, Issue 5
The Serial Communications Port 1 Settings and Serial Communications Port 2 Settings menus allow the operating
parameters of the two serial ports to be configured to match the model of modem or terminal adaptor used.
Figure 2-6 - Serial Communication Port Settings Menu
2.3.2.2.1 Modem/TA Model
Options: Model List, Direct Connect
Select the model of the modem or terminal adapter (TA) connected to the particular COMMS port. Refer to the
device’s user manual to assist with setting the correct configuration.
Use the Direct Connect option when the ADPRO FastTrace is connected directly to a PC running the ADPRO Video
Central Lite software. In this case, no modem or TA is required and a special (‘null-modem’) cable is needed for
correct operation. Refer to Figure 2-2 for the wiring diagram of the null-modem cable.
NOTE
The COMMS 2 port can be used for direct connections to a PC for local setup and for
software upgrades.
