Appendix B: Using AMIQ-SRL Modules
The AMIQ-SRL module is a serial-to-VGA converter which permits VT100-capable devices to be
viewed from the AMX 51xx user station. The actual serial data is not accessed, but is merely
displayed. All serial data coming from the target device is displayed in a VT100 window, placed
into a video buffer and sent to the AMX 51xx user station as though it came from a VGA target
device. Likewise, keystrokes entered on a keyboard are sent to the attached device as though they
were typed on a VT100 terminal.
AMIQ-SRL module modes
The following modes can be accessed from the AMIQ-SRL module:
On-Line: This mode enables you to send and receive serial data.
History: This mode enables you to review serial data.
Configuration: This mode enables you to specify communication parameters, the
appearance
of the serial data, key combinations for specific actions and macros.
Configuring the AMIQ-SRL module
NOTE: The AMIQ-SRL module is a DCE device and only supports VT100 terminal emulation.
Pressing Ctrl-F8 will activate the Configuration Screen, which contains menu items that allow you
to configure your AMIQ-SRL module.
NOTE: When the Configuration Screen is active, pressing Enter saves changes and returns you to the previous
screen. Pressing Esc returns you to the previous screen without saving changes.
Within the Configuration Screen, you can modify the following options:
Baud Rate: This option allows you to specify the serial port communications speed in bauds
per secon
d (BPS). Available options are 300, 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200, 34800, 57600 or
115200. The default value is 9600.
Parity: This option allows you to specify the serial port communications parity. Available
opt
ions are EVEN, ODD or NONE. The default value is NONE.
Flow Control: This option allows you to specify the type of serial flow control. Available
option
s are NONE, XOn/XOff (software) and RTS/CTS (hardware). The default value is
NONE. If you select a Baud Rate of 115200, the only available Flow Control is RTS/
CTS
(hardware).
DSR/CD Mode: This option allows you to control the Data Set Ready/Carrier Detect line on
you
r serial interface. Available options are Always on and Toggle. The default value is
Always on.
Enter Sends: This option enables you to spec
ify the keys that are transmitted when Enter is
pressed. Available options are <CR> (Enter) or <CR><LF> (Enter
- Linefeed).
