Communication Settings

Configure communication settings for connected MicroPeckerX devices in the Device Window. Always perform this before starting monitoring.

Basic Operation​

The communication setting flow is as follows.

1. Open Device Window
   Select Device Window from the menu or toolbar.

2. Select the target channel
   Click Ch*-2 (* is 1 to 4) in the device list on the left side of Device Window. The Protocol Setting area switches to DIO/AD communication settings.
   When using multiple MicroPeckerX units, configure communication settings for each channel used for DIO or A/D monitoring.

3. Set DIO/AD enable and monitoring interval
   In Protocol Setting, you can enable/disable DIO and A/D monitoring and set the data acquisition interval for each.

Device Window​

Item Name		Description
Device List (Area 1)		Shows a list of MicroPeckerX devices recognized by MicroPeckerX Control Software. You can enable/disable each channel by toggling the checkbox to the left of each channel.
button		Moves the selected MicroPeckerX channel position in Device List up by one. For example, if a device assigned to Ch2 is selected, it is reassigned to Ch1 (the previous Ch1 device moves to Ch2).
button		Moves the selected MicroPeckerX channel position in Device List down by one. For example, if a device assigned to Ch2 is selected, it is reassigned to Ch3 (the previous Ch3 device moves to Ch2).
Device Info	Serial	Displays the serial number of the MicroPeckerX selected in Device List.
	Model	Displays the model of the MicroPeckerX selected in Device List.
button		Blinks the green and yellow LEDs on the selected MicroPeckerX. Click again to turn off LEDs. This helps identify the selected device in Device List.
button		Re-detects MicroPeckerX devices connected to the PC.
Protocol Setting (Area 2)		If a serial-number row in Device List is selected, registered licenses for that MicroPeckerX are shown. If a channel row is selected, the communication setting screen is shown. If an unrecognized device is selected, No Device is shown.

Protocol Setting​

For DIO and AD monitoring, you can configure enable/disable and acquisition cycle.

Item		Description
DIO	DIO	Enables/disables DIO monitoring. [ON] Enable DIO monitoring. [OFF] Disable DIO monitoring.
	Sampling Time	Sets DIO monitoring data acquisition cycle in milliseconds. Configurable range: 1-60000.
AD	AD	Enables/disables AD monitoring. [ON] Enable AD monitoring. [OFF] Disable AD monitoring.
	Sampling Rate	Sets AD monitoring data acquisition rate in Hz. Configurable range: 1-10000.
button		Resets Protocol Setting values for the target channel to default values. See Device Setting Defaults.

Device Setting Defaults​

Resets settings in the Protocol Setting tab for the target channel to initial product defaults.

• Resets DIO/AD enable states and each sampling setting to defaults.
• Does not affect settings of other channels or other tabs.

Note: Defaults here match the default values at installation time.
