MODEL 13800 User Guide 

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 #>” 

6. 

You can now execute the following PSG Network 

Adapter commands as needed:

Toggle serial diagnostic mode.  Certain mesh network 

responses are transmitted through the EIA-232 port in 

ASCII format.
