RS-232 Configuration DIP Switches
RS-232 communication is configured using the first eight switches in
the DIP switch block. Switches 1-4 set the baud rate and switches 5-8
are used to set data, parity, and stop bit options. Switches 9 and 10 are
reserved for system use.
Switch Function Off On
1 Baud Rate bit 3
See Baud Rate chart
2 Baud Rate bit 2
3 Baud Rate bit 1
4 Baud Rate bit 0
5 Data Bits 78
6 Parity Low/High No parity Parity
7 Parity Even/Odd Even Odd
8 Stop Bit 1 2
9 Reserved
10 Control Master
To set a DIP switch to the On position, push it upwards.
RS-232 Baud Rates
To set a baud rate, determine the appropriate baud rate for data transfer
by referring to the external send/receive devices’ documentation. Set
both devices to communicate using the same baud rate. Finally, set the
Pro64 devices to the same baud rate and activate the VDCs using the
front-panel interface.

Here, the 6416m is set for a 57,600 baud RS-232 transfer with 8
data bits, no parity, and stop bit set to 2. (Black indicates the switch
handle.)
The following table lists the DIP switch settings for the available RS-232
baud rates.
