[. . . ] This limitation of liability, however, will not apply to claims for personal injury. Some states do not allow a limitation of how long an implied warranty last. Some states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages for consumer products. In such states, the limitation or exclusion of the Limited Warranty may not apply. [. . . ] RS-232 Program connector RS-232 Program DIP switch TX1 and RX1 LEDs This DB-9 RS-232 connector is used for AMX programming tools, such as Axcess and IRLIB. The 8-position DIP switch configures the communication parameters for the Program port. The red LEDs indicate that the AXB-EM232 is receiving (RX) or transmitting (TX) RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 data. RX1 and TX1 correspond to Port 1 on the rear panel (See Rear Panel Components for a description of Port 1). The two 8-position DIP switches configure the communication parameters for the Ports 1 and 2 (See Rear Panel Components for a description of Ports 1 and 2). The red LEDs indicate that the AXB-EM232 is receiving (RX) or transmitting (TX) RS-232 data. RX2 and TX2 correspond to Port 2 (See Rear Panel Components for a description of Port 2). 64 KB battery protected memory, expandable to 256 KB Asynchronous data communication · Baud rates: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, or 38400 RS-232/422 1 and 2 DIP Switches TX2 and RX2 LEDs Rear Panel Components: Ports 1 and 2 AXlink connector Power supply connector Enclosure Dimensions (HWD) Weight Mounting options Optional Accessories: Power Supply Mounting Hardware · PSN2. 8 (FG423-05) · PSN6. 5 Domestic (FG423-41), International (FG423-43) AC-RK Accessory Rack Kit (FG515) There are two serial connectors: Port 2 is a 6-wire RS-232 captive-wire connector; Port 1 is an 8-wire RS-232/422 captive wire connector. The AXlink connector is a 4-wire, captive-wire connector for data and power. The PWR connector is a 2-wire, captive-wire connector for the 12 VDC power supply.

Remove the front panel, and slide the circuit board out of the enclosure. Remove the jumper on pin trio E1 from pins 2-3 and place it on pins 1-2 (FIG. Then, replace the front panel, refasten the two screws, and plug in the two-wire power connector. Setting DIP switches Configure the device and programming communication ports' baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity. Use the eight-position DIP switches on the front panel to set the communications parameters. ! RS-232 PROGRAM DIP switch - Use the eight-position RS-232 Program DIP switch to set the communications parameters for the PROGRAM port. RS-232/422 DIP switches - Use the two eight-position RS232/422 DIP switches to set communications parameters for controlling the RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 devices. ! ! ·Set Switch 1 to configure the parameters for Port 1 (RS-232/422/485). Set Switch 2 to configure the parameters for Port 2 (RS-232 only). ! AXB-EM232 Enhanced Master RS-232 Controller 3 Product Information Refer to the following table when setting the DIP switches.

Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section. Do not tighten the screws excessively; doing so may strip the threads and damage the connector. Using AXlink Connect the AXlink wiring to the connector on the AXB-EM232, as shown in FIG. [. . . ] Send_String sequences "27, 17, <time in 100 microsecond increments 1-255>" Sends a break character of the specified length of time. "27, 18, 1" Sets the 9 data bit to 1 for all subsequent characters to be transmitted. Clears the 9 data bit to 0 for all subsequent characters to be transmitted. Asserts RTS hardware handshake output low (Device 2).
