RS485 COM2 BAUD RATE and PARITY: The L30 is equipped with two independent serial communication ports. The faceplate
RS232 port is intended for local use and is fixed at 19200 bit/s baud and even parity. The rear COM2 port is RS485 and has
settings for baud rate and parity. It is important that these parameters agree with the settings used on the computer or other
equipment that is connected to these ports. Any of these ports can be connected to a computer running EnerVista UR
Setup. This software can download and upload setting files, view measured parameters, and upgrade the relay firmware. A
maximum of 32 relays can be daisy-chained and connected to a DCS, PLC, or computer using the RS485 ports. If IEC
60870-103 is chosen as the protocol, valid baud rates are 9600 and 19200 bit/s, and valid parity is Even.
RS485 COM2 RESPONSE MIN TIME: This setting specifies the minimum time before the rear RS485 port transmits after receiv-
ing data from a host. This feature allows operation with hosts that hold the RS485 transmitter active for some time after
each transmission.
