2. Power Configuration The SX 550 can be set to go into power save mode by using the console command SET POWER n where n is 0 for high power is always on 1 for medium and 2 for low lowest power consumption The SHOW POWER command shows the current power configuration Serial Port Emulator The Serial Port Emulator SPE software emulates a standard Windows COM port That is it creates a virtual COM port that functions exactly like the Windows COM1 and COM2 serial ports except that bel O actually goes out over the Ethernet or WLAN to the SX 550 and to the serial device that is connected to the SX 550 As a result any application program that uses a standard Windows COM port can also use the Serial Port Emulator The SPE is therefore especially useful if you have existing programs that use Windows COM ports The SPE software is a component on the CD ROM that is included with the SX 550 6900 Evaluation Daughtercard or it can be downloaded from the Silex website To install it double click on the installer icon and follow the installation instructions When the installation is complete you can run the SPE software by clicking Start gt Programs gt Silex technology gt Serial Port Emulator gt Serial Port Emulator Part Number 40183 101 Silex SX 550 Developer s Guide Page 34 2 Serial Port Emulator silex technology america Inc 10 x Ele Ports view Tools Help jersi kusbotien zje mY OAP
