Please keep in mind that the serial settings of your device and the get red-y\u00a0 software (or your PLC) must be set identical to allow communication between them.<\/strong>
\nParity and stop bits settings, in addition to the baud rate configuration, are only available for smart6 device from the firmware v6.0.14, and supported by get red-y software from v5.7.0.6.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Settings on your device:<\/strong>
\nFirst, change the settings on your device with the help of the Register Tool from get red-y 5 software. For the release of this Register Tool function, you will have to ask a daily password from our service department.<\/p>\n

1. Start get red-y and select the question mark (?)<\/p>\n

2. Click on \u201cpassword for one day\u201d and enter the daily password received from the customer service<\/p>\n

\"Software<\/p>\n

3. Click on “Password for one day” and enter the daily password you received from us<\/p>\n

4. Click on the right mouse button within the device list to open the context menu for a specific device:<\/p>\n

\"Software<\/p>\n

5. Select \u201cRegister Tool\u201d<\/p>\n

6. Within the Register addresses filed select \u201cBaudrate\u201d (=register 0x5200)<\/p>\n

\"Software<\/p>\n

7. By selecting the \u201cRead\u201d button the default value \u201c5\u201d will appear.<\/p>\n

Note<\/strong>: To change Baud rate, parity and Stop bits, you will have to select a unique value with 3 ditigs with the desired setting from the table below.<\/p>\n

8. Now you will have to enter a 3 digits value, and select \u201cWrite\u201d<\/p>\n

As the changes are not anymore only done on the Baud rate, we will have to use 3 digits that will always operate a change on all three parameters.<\/p>\n

The register now has three digits, which control the behaviour as given in the following table:<\/p>\n

\"Software<\/p>\n

9. As the default communication settings under the get red-y software are now different from those on your device, the Error message “interface change” appears.<\/p>\n

\"Software<\/p>\n

Settings get red-y software (or PLC):<\/strong><\/p>\n

Note<\/strong>: In order to find the device via the get red-y software, the serial settings of the software must match the settings of the device.<\/p>\n

10. Open get red-y software<\/p>\n

11. Select Settings<\/p>\n

12. Set \u201cStop bits\u201d, \u201cparity\u201d, \u201cbaud rate\u201d according to the device settings and confirm with Ok.<\/p>\n
