1.2.2 Software Definitions

1.2.2.1 ConnexLink Settings Window

1. Client/Server: Designates ConnexLink type. In each network, there must be only one

Server. All other ConnexLink units must be programmed as Clients. The number of

Clients in the network is not limited; however, if performance diminishes, consider

additional RF Networks.

2. Baud Rate: This defines the Serial baud rate between the ConnexLink unit and the host

device, such as a PC. The RF transmission rate is fixed.

3. Maximum Transmit Attempts: For Point-to-Point networks only. This value represents

the maximum number of times a data packet can be sent by the ConnexLink units. The

default value is 10 attempts. If communication is lost and the Client's Link LED is on, try

increasing this value in small increments until communication is reestablished. The valid

range of values for this field is 1 to 255.

4. Broadcast Attempts: For Point-to-Multipoint networks only. This value represents the

number of times a data packet will be sent by the Server ConnexLink unit. The default

value is 4 attempts. If communication is lost and the Clients' Link LED is on, try

increasing this value in small increments until communication is reestablished. The valid

range of values for this field is 1 to 255.

5. Channel Number: A number that designates an independent network of ConnexLink

units. Up to 77 independent networks can created. The valid range of values for this

field is 0 to 76.

6. System Identification: A sequence of eight numbers that provide added security to

each independent network of ConnexLink units. The valid range of values for each of the

eight numbers is 0 to 255.

Important Note: For a network of ConnexLink units to communicate with

each other, all ConnexLink units must have identical Channel Numbers and

System IDs. If additional networks are created, each network must use

different Channel Numbers and System IDs so that existing networks are

not interfered with.
