Computer/Laptop Programming Overview 

 

Overview
of 
Computer 
Program
ming 
 

 

This section describes the system communications via a computer.   System monitoring, 
General Control functions and system programming can only be accessed from a computer 
terminal with the F620.  All figures shown are displayed on the computer screen.   
 

Interconnect 
 

 

The 14 pin ribbon cable P/N 71332, is used to connect the computer to the  CPU Module 
port P2. If the SIM-232 card is installed use cable P/N 70703 to connect to the Com2 port 
of SIM-232 module. Refer to (drawing # D-W1142). 
 

Communication 
Protocol 

 

The system communicates with a computer at baud rates of 1200,2400,4800 and 9600 BPS 
(see baud rate settings in CPU installation section).  The standard protocol is Xon/Xoff, No 
Parity, 8 Data Bits and 1 Stop Bit. 
 

Û 

Note

: Most standard communication packages for computers will 

allow you to set the proper protocol for the communications port of 
your computer. 

 

Procomm Software 

 

Configuration 
 

 

When using PROCOMM to communicate with your FLEX 600 system the following 
configuration should be used. Several areas of the ProComm setup menu and the line 
settings menu must be accessed to configure the protocol required.  
 

Line  Settings 
 

 

The Line Settings option can be selected by pressing the ALT and P keys simultaneously. 
From this menu select the option that your RS-232 port is set for (e.g., 2400,N,8,1 would 
be selected if your port speed is set to 2400 baud). The  protocol is  Baud Rate (port speed 
setting), No Parity (N), 8 Data bits (8) and 1 Stop Bit (1). 
 

Setup Menu 

 

The ProComm SETUP MENU is accessed by pressing the ALT and S keys simultaneously. 
The following screen should appear: 
 

 

 

1) MODEM SETUP 

2) TERMINAL SETUP 

3) KERMIT SETUP 

4) GENERAL SETUP 

5) HOST MODE SETUP 

6) ASCII TRANSFER SETUP 

S) SAVE TO DISK
