Global Cache FLC-SL-232 Flex Link Serial Cables User Guide
RS232 (FLC-SL-232), RS232 Mini Jack (FLC-SL-MJ), and RS485 (FLC-SL-485)
Getting Started
Once the Flex is connected to the network (see Flex Quick Starts), plug the Flex Link Relay & Sensor cable (FLC-RS) into the Flex Link Port.
To configure Flex Link Serial cables, right-click on the unit entry in iHelp and select Configure, or enter the Flex unit’s IP address into a web browser to access the Flex Configuration page.
On the Flex Link Cable page, select Serial in the dropdown menu to configure the settings as desired. The setup webpage provides the basic configuration and control interface to demonstrate and test serial functionality.
FLC-SL-485
RS485 settings include Baud Rate, Duplex, Parity, Data Bits, and Stop Bits.
Duplex is unique to RS485 cables. It should be set to Full for 4-signal RS485
and Half for 2-signal RS485.
FLC-SL-232 and FLC-SL-MJ
RS232 settings include Baud Rate, Flow Control, Parity, Data Bits, Stop Bits,
and Gender. The gender of a FLC-SL-232 cable can be changed using the included
gender changer. The setting should be set to True if the gender changer is
used or False if it is not used. If a null modem cable is desired, then the
Gender Changer setting should be inverted. Once all selections are made, click
Save Configuration to apply the new settings.
Disconnecting the serial cable from the Flex Link Port will reset all open TCP sockets and reinitialize the serial cable. All connections must be reestablished after unplugging the cable from the port.
For detailed info on configuring and using the Flex and Flex Link Cables, consult the User Guide: Flex and Flex Link Cables at www.globalcache.com/docs.
