board. All programm ing and initial communication

between the RPC-2350 and outside world is done

through RS-232.

The terminal program you use depends upon the

operating environment. The vast majority of

environments are PC ’s operating either DOS or

Microsoft Windows. If you are using another operating

environment, then just read “All terminal pr ograms”

below and set up your terminal program accordingly.

All terminal programs

Set communication parameters to

Baud rate: 19200

Data length: 8

Parity: none

Stop bits 1

The RP C-2350 does not send a CTS signal on its

communication port. If your terminal or comm unications

software requires this or other signals (DCD , DSR), you

may have to tie them to the appropriate levels. You can

probably ignore these lines in software. Windows

Terminal and Hyper Ter minal, P C Smar tLink, or

Procomm does not need them.

Set “handshake” control to “none” or OFF as

appropriate.

Default communication method between the RPC-2350

and PC is RS-232 ASCII. This includes file upload and

download. Other protocols such as XMOD EM ar e not

used.

A terminal program should be able to recognize a

‘prompt’ chara cter. A prom pt character is used to

control a transfer when sending a file (as is done during

a program download). W hen the RPC-2350 sends a ‘> ’

prompt character, it is saying “OK to send the next

line.” Standard Windows Hyper Term does not allow

this. Windows Terminal, Procomm and PC SmartLink

do.

If your terminal program does not allow for prompt

characters dur ing text transfers, next best is to put a

delay between sending lines (as is done in HyperTerm

and Terminal). How much depends upon what you are

sending. If you are downloading a small program (<

1000 lines), then 1/10 second is plenty of time. If you

are downloading data files, then you may need more

time, depending upon the complexity. The major

penalty when downloading with delays is increased

download time.

DOS mode

Start your serial communication program (PC

SmartLink, Proc omm, or other). Set the CO M por t to

the one you will be using.

Windows mode

You may use either Windows 3.1 Terminal or Windows

95 HyperTerm communication programs. For a fast

setup, use one of the following files:

CAMBASIC.TRM Windows terminal

CAMBASIC.HT Hyper terminal

Make sure you set the COM port number under

“Properties. ”

See “Developing programs in Window s” late r in this

section for more information on writing and editing

program s.

FIRST TIME OPERATION

Make sure your terminal is set up as described above.

Become familiar with the locations of the connectors

before getting started. See Figure 2-1.

RPC -2350 jum pers have been set at the factory to

operate the system immediately. For first time

operation, do not install any connectors or parts unless

specified below. Jumper s should be kept in default

positions.

1. The RPC-2350 requires + 5 ±0.25 VDC at 300 mA.

The RPC-2350G can use + 5V or 6.5 to 30 VDC at

150 to 320 mA. (Cur rent draw depends upon supply

voltage. More voltage = less current).

Make sure pow er is off. Connec t the power supply

to the appropriately marked terminals on the RPC-

2350 or RPC-2350G.

+ 5V is connected to P2, “+ 5V”. Make sure

jumper W8 is not installed.

7 to 30 VDC is connected to P2, “7-30V” (RPC-

2350G only). Make sure jumper W 8 is installed.
