DECS-250N Communication
Communication
Local Communication
A type B, USB port connects the DECS-250N with a PC operating BESTCOMSPlus
®
for local, short- term
communication. This mode of communication is useful for settings configuration and system
commissioning. The USB port is located on the front panel and illustrated in the Controls and Indicators
chapter of this manual. A USB device driver for the DECS-250N is automatically installed on your PC
during the installation of BESTCOMSPlus. Information about establishing communication between
BESTCOMSPlus and the DECS-250N is provided in the BESTCOMSPlus Software chapter of this
manual.
Caution
In accordance with the guidelines defined in USB standards, the USB
port on this device is not isolated. To prevent damage to a connected
PC or laptop, the DECS-250N must be properly tied to ground.
Communication with a Second DECS
BESTCOMSPlus Navigation Path: Settings Explorer, Communications, RS232 Setup
HMI Navigation Path: Settings, Communications, RS232 Setup.
Communication with a second DECS enables regulation setpoint tracking to occur in a dual, or redundant,
DECS application. External setpoint tracking is possible between a DECS-250N and second DECS-250N
or a DECS-250N and DECS-200N.
All DECS controllers mentioned here use a female DB-9 (RS-232) connector for communication with a
second DECS. On the DECS-250N, this connector is located on the right side panel and is illustrated in
the Terminals and Connectors chapter of this manual. A five-foot (1.5 meter) cable, part number
9310300032, is available for interconnecting two DECS controllers.
RS-232 port communication settings are illustrated in Figure 137 and consist of the baud rate
A
, number of
bits per character
B
, parity
C
, and the number of stop bits
D
. When connecting the DECS-250N to a
DECS-200N, you must ensure that the communication settings of the DECS-200N match those of the
DECS-250N.
