Serial S-Bus communication over RS-232
This communication uses a standard RS-232 connection on the block X3.
This works only in a point to point link.
This RS-232 S-Bus connection is foreseen to be used between our PCD7.D4xx and
PCD3.M3020, PCD1.M125/M135, or PCD2.M150 where «less fast» communications
are acceptable.
The communication speed is limited to 115'200 bauds.
Quick test?
■ Take PCD2.M150 for ex. and connect it to your MB-Panel
PCD7.D4xx. Have a 3-wire cable (shielded is always better).
■ On the side PCD2.M150 you can plug your cable onto one of the serial RS-232
port at disposal using for ex. the port #1 (together with PCD7.F120 Module).
■
Then define the HW settings
ager). S-Bus support must be selected. Enter a valid Station Number. Serial S-Bus
Port must also be activated and configured as the following example:
Setup adjustment:
Configure now the MB-Panel entering in the Setup Menu (refer to chapters 5 and 6):
In the setup Menu Configuration/Communication click on the button Configure
below Port #0 (RS-232) in order to adjust the communication parameter. Here the
Baudrate value especially should be defined. Then go back to the previous page.
Click on the
nection buttons and press ENTER.
You can now adjust the
and station Nr you want to access to. Be sure you saved your definition.
