Developer Kit User’s Manual
Select the appropriate product in the Product pull-down menu. Doing this will automatically select the
default baud rate for that product family. If the COM port is listed as unavailable, a different COM port
can be selected in the Port pull-down menu. The software can use two serial ports if the Enabled: box
is checked.
3.3.1 Port1/Port2 Options
The software can control up to (2) COM ports including virtual COM ports, which physically map to USB
or Ethernet ports. The Port pull-down menu allows selection of COM1 through COM16. An error
message will be displayed if a port is selected that is either nonexistent or already occupied by another
software program. When a port selection is made, the software will attempt to open the port and list its
status as; Unavailable, Open or Closed. Although menus are shown for Data Bits, Parity and Stop Bits,
only the Parity menu selection can be changed.
3.3.2 Other Options
These are additional options.
3.3.2.1 Save Settings on Exit
When enabled, all changes made to the Settings page will be automatically loaded the next time the
software is run. Otherwise, the changes will be discarded.
3.3.2.2 Read/Write with AT Commands
When enabled, the software will use AT Commands for its read/write EEPROM functions instead of the
standard configuration commands. This is only available for the AC5124 (when enabled in EEPROM),
AC4424, AC4486, AC4490, AC4790, and AC4868 and is ignored for all other product modes.
3.3.3 Status Bar
Located at the bottom of the software, the status bar gives the state of Port 1, RTS Port 1, CTS Port 1,
Port 2, RTS Port 2, and CTS Port 2 lines. When the text appears black, the current state will be shown.
When the text appears gray, the current state will not be shown. The text shown in the bottom status bar
gives a simplified status of the current, pending software process. The software has no pending process
when “Communications Idle” is shown.
3.3.4 About Button
The About button can be pressed to determine the revision number of the software and the contact
information for Aerocomm.
3.3.5 Help Button
When the Help button is pressed, the Help file will be shown.
