RS485 setting valuesIf ”Master=Pop” was selected, only the settings compatible with the Pops (ParkerOperator Panels) made by Parker are possible.Please note that the connected Pop has the same RS485 setting values.You can test this with the "PopDesigner" software."Master=General" makes all Compax3 settings possible.You can use this address to allow the master to access multiple devicessimultaneously.The device address of the connected Compax3 can be set here.Adjust the transfer speed (baud rate) to the master.Please choose between two-wire and four-wire RS485 (see page 53).Adjust the protocol settings to the settings of your master.5.
