3.1

Setting the Transmission Speed (Baud Rate) and

Transmission Format

When using the Computer Communication Unit to carry out serial communication with

an external device, the transmission speed (baud rate) and transmission format must be

set ahead of time to match those of the external device that will be serving as the partner

station.

With the FP2 Computer Communication Unit, the transmission format setting switches

(DIP switches) can be used to change only the transmission speed (baud rate) and

character bit to match those of the external device.

3.1.1

Transmission Format Setting Using Switch

The transmission format setting switches can be used to change the transmission speed

(baud rate) and character bit settings for the COM.1 and COM.2 ports. The values set

with these switches become effective when the power supply is turned on.

For COM. 1 port

For COM. 2 port

Character bit: on: 8−bit

off: 7−bit

Transmission speed (Baud rate):

on−off: 19,200 bits/s

off−on: 9,600 bits/s

on−on: 4,800 bits/s
