6.2.1 Initial Connection
If using the PNI dual-connectorized cable, ensure the batteries are well-charged.
Select the serial port the module is plugged into, which is generally COM 1.
Select 38400 as the baud rate.
Click the <Connect> button if the connection is not automatic.
Once a connection is made the “Connected” light will turn green and the module’s
firmware version, serial number, and PCA version will be displayed in the header section.
6.2.2 Changing Baud Rate
To change the baud rate:
In the Module window, select the new baud rate for the module.
Click the <Power Down> button. The button will change to read <Power Up>.
In the Computer window, select same baud rate for the computer.
Click the <Power Up> button. The button will revert back to <Power Down>.
Note: While the TCM can operate at a baud rate of 230400, a PC serial port normally will not
operate this fast.
