g) Serial Screen
The main configuration item on the serial screen allows you to select the baud rate of the THCD-
100 for serial communication. The allowed baud rates are 9600, 19200 & 57600. There is also an
address field that is mainly used for identifying a particular unit if several are connected together on
an RS485 network. All commands sent to the unit must be prefixed with the address letter (see
section 5.2 for more information). Valid letters are ‘a’ to ‘h’. The other editable field is used to tell
the THCD-100 whether it is on an RS485 serial network.
