Although the receiver can operate at data transfer rates as low as 300 bps this is not desirable For example if several data logs are active that is a significant amount of information needs to be transmitted every second but the bit rate is set too low data will overflow the serial port buffers cause an error condition in the receiver status and result in lost data 4 1 2 Communicating Using a Remote Terminal One method of communicating with the receiver is through a remote terminal The receiver has been pre wired to allow proper RS 232 interface with your data terminal To communicate with the terminal the receiver only requires the RX TX and GND lines to be used Handshaking is not required although it can optionally be used Ensure the terminal s communications set up matches the receiver s RS 232 protocol 4 1 3 Communicating Using a Personal Computer 52 An IBM compatible PC can be set up to emulate a remote terminal as well as provide the added flexibility of creating multiple command batch files and data logging storage files Any standard communications software package that emulates a terminal can be used to establish bidirectional communications with the receiver for example Hyperterminal or our own graphic user interface GUD program CDU All data is sent as raw 8 bit binary or ASCII characters OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 8 Operation Chapter 4 4 2 Getting Started Included with yo
