RF Transceiver
PC SETTINgS TAB
The PC Settings tab is shown in the following graphics, as it will appear the first time the program is run.
Select the Connex2510 in the Product pull-down menu. Doing this will automatically select the default baud rate
of 115200. Use the Find Ports button to search Windows for existing Com Ports. The ports will then be available
in the drop-down for the Port1 Settings. If the desired Com Port is not found, you can manually add it with
the Add Ports button. If the COM port is listed as unavailable, a different COM port can be selected in the Port
pull-down menu. The application can use two serial ports if the Enabled: box is checked under Port 2 settings.
Port 1/Port 2 Options
The application can control up to (2) COM ports, including virtual COM ports, which physically map to USB or
Ethernet ports. The Port pull-down menu allows selection of COM1 through COM16. An error message will be
displayed if a port is selected that is either nonexistent or already occupied by another program. When a port
selection is made, the application will attempt to open the port and list its status as:
• Unavailable/Open/Closed
The Port Status is shown just above the Port pull-down menu and also in the status bar at the bottom of the
screen. The software will only be able to communicate with a radio if the Port Status is Open.
Although menus are shown for Baud Rate, Parity, Handshaking, Data Bits, and Stop Bits, only the Baud Rate,
Parity, and Handshaking menu selections can be changed. This option must be enabled to read and write the
CL2510 EEPROM.
Options
The application also provides the following options:
Save Settings On Exit
When this option is enabled, all changes made to the Settings tab will be automatically loaded the next
time the application is run. Otherwise, any changes made will be discarded.
Read/Write With AT Commands
When this option is enabled, the application will use AT Commands for its read/write EEPROM functions
instead of the standard configuration commands. This option must be enabled to read and write the
CL2510 EEPROM.
Auto Baud
When this option is enabled, the application will scan all available COM Ports using the most common
baud rates, until a radio is found. If no radio is found or the application cannot open the port, an error
message will be reported. The application will only use Auto Baud when prompted by the user after an
unsuccessful read process.
