10. The Computer Interface
With the computer interface is a USB Computer interface. This
interface is on IBM-compatible PCS or laptops.
To connect the Intellibox (socket 5) with the USB interface of the
computer use the Uhlenbrock USB cable Part No. 61 070. That is a
USB cable with A and B type of plug as is also used for connecting
the computer to a USB printer.
The computer interface is adjusted to a data transmission rate of
115200 Baud.
The Intellibox Basic USB-LocoNet interface can be used with the
Windows operating systems 2000, XP and Vista (32 bits, without
active user account control). Support for older Windows of systems
like 95 or 98 is not provided.
For layout control all PC control programs which support the
LocoNet protocol can be installed.
10.1 Interface Characteristics
• Galvanic isolation between PC and LocoNet
• Baud rates: 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200
• Two modes of operation:
1. all bytes are handed over directly at LocoNet (only 19200
Baud)
2. only valid LocoNet Messages are transferred by the PC to
LocoNet; the interface steers the data traffic on LocoNet;
all bytes of LocoNet are handed over directly to the PC
(factory setting).
10.2 Interface Characteristics
Since the interface on the Intellibox Basic technically is the same as
the LocoNet interface 63120 it is setup in the same way by LocoNet
programming (see chapter 4.9).
As part number you use 63 120; the module address is 1.
