Product Usage Instructions

RS232 Connection

  1. Connect the RS232 cable to the designated port on the product.
  2. Set the Baudrate to 115200 Bit/s on your communication software.
  3. Ensure Parity bits are set to None, Data bits to 8, and Stop bits to 1.
  4. Adjust the Control sending Interval as needed, ensuring it is greater than 200ms.
  5. If using presets load/save function, set the interval to greater than 3s.

TCP/IP Connection

  1. Configure the product to use TCP client as the Transport protocol.
  2. Refer to the IP address information displayed on the LCD or check it in the software.
  3. Set the Network port to 8234.
  4. Adjust the Control sending interval to be greater than 200ms.
  5. If configuring for Presets function, ensure the interval is set to greater than 3s.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Q: How do I find the IP address information in the LCD display?
    A: Navigate through the menu options on the LCD display to locate the network settings where the IP address is displayed.
  • Q: What should I do if the Control sending interval is less than recommended?
    A: Adjust the settings in the control software to increase the interval to meet the specified requirements for proper operation.
