Serial Port Parameters
These parameters are for the RS-232, RJ-11 serial port on the CPU364 module. This port is used

and
for connecting to the Software Loader. The
Software Loader settings take effect automatically when the Ethernet Interface enters the
“Software Load” state. For all other states the Station Manager settings take effect. Refer to
“Verifying Proper Power-Up of the Ethernet Interface”, for more information on states of the
Ethernet Interface.
