Communication with Terminal Program
Data Terminal
If a module cannot be found in the network or the connection to the network is interrupted,
you can connect a data terminal to the VIP X1600 XF for initial setup and setting of important
parameters. The data terminal consists of a computer with a terminal program.
You require a serial transmission cable with a 9-pin Sub-D plug to connect to the computer
and open ends for connection to the terminal block of the module (see Section 8.8 Terminal
Block, page 107).
HyperTerminal, a communications accessory included with Microsoft Windows, can be used
as the terminal program.
