Insert each wire into the appropriate captive-wire connector up to the insulation. Tighten the captive screws to secure the fit in the connector. If the device is using a separate power supply, do not connect the power wiring from the AXB-232++ to that device. Wiring guidelines The interface requires a 12 VDC power to operate properly. The Central Controller supplies power via the AXlink cable or external 12 VDC power supply. Place the front panel of the AXB-232++ on the front of the rack, over the unit. Fasten the front panel to the rack and unit with the two screws you removed. Replacing the Lithium Batteries The AXB-232++'s lithium batteries have a life of approximately 5 years to protect its memory. When you install the AXB-232++, record the date the batteries should be replaced. There is a danger of explosion if you replace the batteries incorrectly. Replace batteries with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of the used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never recharge, disassemble, or heat batteries above 212°F (100°C). Never solder directly to the batteries or expose the contents of the batteries to water. Before removing the lithium batteries, contact your dealer and verify that they have a current copy of your program to avoid an inadvertent loss of data and prevent an unnecessary service outage. Remove the front panel, and slide the circuit board out of the enclosure. 10), and insert the new battery. Battery (CR2032 type - 20mm coin cell) socket FIG. Reconnect any connectors that you removed. 8 AXB-232++ RS-232/422/485 Interface Programming Programming Send_Commands The AXB-232++ supports the same command set as the AXC-232. AXB-232++ Send_Commands B9MOFF Sets data bit mode to normal with DIP switch settings (default). Syntax: 'B9MOFF' Example: SEND_COMMAND AXB232, 'B9MOFF' Sets the data bit mode to normal. Syntax: 'B9MON' The mode, nine data bits with one stop bit, overrides the data, stop, and parity settings. When the AXB-232++ issues this command, it locks in the baud rate determined by the current DIP switch setting. Example: SEND_COMMAND AXB232, 'B9MON' Overrides the DIP switch settings. BAUDHIGH Enables 115, 200 baud rate when the DIP switch is set to 300 baud. Syntax: 'BAUDHIGH' Example: SEND_COMMAND AXB232, 'BAUDHIGH' Enables 115, 200 baud rate. [. . . ] SEND_COMMAND AXB_232, 'BAUDLOW' SEND_COMMAND AXB_232, 'CB1ON' SEND_COMMAND AXB_232, 'CB1OFF' SEND_LEVEL 0, level, variable SEND_STRING 0, string SEND_STRING 1, string Enables placement of characters in the buffer specified by CREATE_BUFFER 1. Disables placement of characters in the buffer specified by CREATE_BUFFER 1. Sends variable as the value for level. Sends string out the RS-232 port. AXB-232++ RS-232/422/485 Interface 13 Programming Xmodem Timing Commands The following table lists the AXB-232++ Xmodem timing commands. Xmodem timeouts exist to accommodate potential Ethernet delays and for consistency among and within products. Any Xmodem timing command will change timing and retries for Axcess code download as well as Softrom transfer. [. . . ]
