This manual provides instructions for setting up and configuring the RS232 and RS485 serial output options for LAUREL Electronics MAGNA and Intuitive series…
This document covers the setup and configuration of the Serial Output Option for LAUREL Electronics' MAGNA and Intuitive series displays. It details how to configure the RS232 or RS485 boards for ASCII or Modbus RTU communication protocols. The guide explains how to set parameters such as baud rate, data format, and protocol type (continuous or polled) directly on the display.
| Response speed | 10 times per second |
|---|---|
| Isolation | 250 V AC |
| Battery backup | CR1620 3V Lithium |
| Clock accuracy | better than +/- 10 seconds per month |
| RS232 max distance (1200 baud) | 50 m (165 ft) |
You must set the internal comms parameters on Page 8 and use the specific switch settings shown for Modbus RTU.
Use good quality low capacitance twisted-pair screened signal cable, such as CAT5.
