SERIALPARALLEL CONVERTERS
3. Configuration and Installation
The Converter is simple to install and extremely reliable.
The following instructions will help you set up and
install your converter properly. If you have any
questions, please call Black Box Technical Support
at 724-746-5500.
3.1 Configuration Switches
The Converters each use a set of eight external DIP
switches (see Figure 3-1) that allow configuration to a
wide range of applications. Because all eight switches
are in one externally accessible DIP-switch package,
you don’t need to open the case for configuration.
The configuration switches allow you to select data
rates, parity, word length, and flow control. This section
describes all switch locations, positions, and functions.
