TESTING
The PSG Network Adapter operates in two protocol modes –
binary and ASCII. Binary mode is used only by applications such
as the Monet™ suite, and enables detailed, automated control and
monitoring of target nodes on the mesh network. Refer to the
EnernetWorks™
Mesh Network API Guide for details.
ASCII mode is used primarily to test and configure the PSG
Network Adapter via the EIA-232 port. Perform the following
steps to configure the PSG Network Adapter:
1.
Make sure PSG Network Adapter is unpowered
while making connections or changing
configuration switch settings.
2.
Set building address per instructions on page 6,
Configuration Switches.
3.
Set network interface device to 57600bps, 8 bits,
no parity 1 stop bit, flow control = NONE.
4.
Connect 9-pin serial cable to the PSG Network
Adapter EIA-232 port and to your network interface
device.
5.
Connect power cable to PSG Network Adapter. It
immediately sends the message,
“
EnernetWorks™
Serial Gateway, Ver.
<firmware version #>”
