In the “Connect To” window, select the
communication port that will be used with the receiver
(COM5
in this example). In the next “COMx Properties”, enter the following parameters:
9600
bits per seconds,
8
Data bits, Parity
None
,
1
Stop bit, Flow control
None
.
Click on OK and the communication with the iSXBlue/SXBlue II should start immediately. The flow of
data should look like the following screenshot:
If you do not see any data streaming out the receiver’s port, it might be caused by either one of the
following two factors:
•
All data messages are turned off. To verify, type a command like $JI or $JT and the receiver
should send a reply (at this point you might not see the characters that were typed, but should get
a reply anyway; local echo of the characters will be turned on below).
•
The communication speed of the receiver is not at 9600 bits per seconds. Click on the
“Disconnect” icon
to drop the communication. Call the Properties windows
and click on
the Configure button to select a different baud rate. Reconnect to the receiver with the “Connect”
icon until you see a flow of data or until the receiver responds to the $JI or $JT commands.
