HW Settings

Name Type, range SUBID Default Description
cfg string 98 9600/8N1 cfg=’SPEED/BPS’, where
SPEED – baud rate [1200..115200];
B – data length [7,8];
P – presence and type of parity bit [N(No parity),E(Even parity),O(Odd parity)];
S – stop bit length [1, 1.5 or 2].
Example: 

hw="cfg='9600/8N1'"
[Protocol] string 98 — Protocol setting is described by protocol parameter. The following
protocols are supported”

  • ‘modbus’, Modbus protocol, at the end of redirection the checksum CRC16(Modbus) is added;
  • ‘dmx’, DMX protocol;
  • ‘CO2’ for connecting Larnitech CO2 sensors;
  • ‘salda’ for connecting Salda ventilation.

Example: 

hw="cfg='9600/8N1' modbus"
echo on; off 98 “off” For settings check out and testing echo parameter can be used. Module
echo-reply can be turned on or off with the help of this parameter.

Echo parameter value:

  • ‘off’;
  • ‘on’.

Example: 

hw="cfg='9600/8N1' echo='off'"
