8.9 Communication with terminal program
Data terminal
If a VOT-320 cannot be found in the network or the connection to the network is interrupted,
you can connect a data terminal to the VOT-320 for initial setup and setting of important
parameters. The data terminal consists of a computer with a terminal program.
You require a serial transmission cable with a 9-pin Sub-D plug to connect to the computer
and open ends for connection to the terminal block of the VOT-320 (see Section Relay and
alarm (lower 6-pin terminal block), page 100).
HyperTerminal, a communications accessory included with Microsoft Windows, can be used
as the terminal program.
1. Disconnect the VOT-320 from the Ethernet network before working with the terminal
program.
2. Connect the serial interface of the VOT-320 using any available serial interface on the
computer.
Configuring the terminal
Before the terminal program can communicate with the VOT-320, the transmission
parameters must be matched. Make the following settings for the terminal program:
– 19,200 bps
– 8 data bits
– No parity check
–1 stop bit
– No protocol
Command inputs
After the connection has been established, you must log on to the VOT-320 to access the main
menu. Other submenus and functions can be accessed using the on-screen commands.
1. If necessary, turn off the local echo so that entered values are not repeated on the
display.
2. Enter one command at a time.
3. When you have entered a value, such as the IP address, check the characters you have
entered before pressing Enter to transfer the values to the VOT-320.
NOTICE!
Information on installing and using HyperTerminal can be found in the manuals or in the online
help for Microsoft Windows.
