5: Configuration Using Web Manager
Port Settings Description
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 or 230400.
Data Bits
Indicates the number of bits in a transmitted data package. The
default is 8.
Parity
Checks for the parity bit. The default is None.
Stop Bits
The stop bit follows the data & parity bits in serial communication.
It indicates the end of transmission. The default is 1.
Pack Control
Pack Control Settings Description
Enable Packing
Select to enable packing on the Micro125.
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
economiz 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 Micro125. The default is No.
Match Bytes
Use to indicate the end of a series of data to be sent as one group.
Set this value to 00 if specific functions are not needed.
Send Frame Immediate
After the detection of the byte sequence, indicates whether to send
the data frame or the entire buffer. Select Yes to send only the
data frame. The default setting is No.
Send Trailing Bytes
Select the number of bytes to send after the end-of-sequence
characters. The default is None.
