![]() Sorry guys but I was referring to the serial connection. I saw the LAN setup. If you have any info on that then that would be a great help. Thank you.

![]() Hi Scott
first of all: did you select the correct COM-Port? The device address should be 1, the baudrate needs not to be changed. You can set it up after clicking the button "...", please see attachment. Did you use our connection cable (ProfiLuxSer)? Does you PC have a RS232 port or do you use Serial-USB-converter? Regards Matthias |

![]() Hi,
the baudrate is in standard 9600 - in ProfiLux and in the PC-program. There is no need to change it. COM-Port is OK?? For example the COM-Port of my notebook is 3 (check it with the windows device manager). I had to change it from 1 to 3. I got no mail. |

![]() Ok. That helped. Now connected to the controller via serial. Now for the WLAN connection. Hopefully I can figure that one out from the 9 pg WLAN guide I printed out...will let you know. For those of you having trouble connecting via serial here is a step by step for beginners and those who don't know how to get to the place where you change the COM settings on your PC or Notebook. The instructions are for XP Pro computers.
Right click on the my computer icon on your desktop Select "manage" Open "ports" in list by changing the + to - Double click on com port Select the port setting tab Click on the advanced button From the drop down menu change port setting to Com1 and click Ok. Reopen the manage tool to make sure COM1 is now the default for the computer. Next make sure the Profilux is set to COM1 for the serial connection by going into the EXTRAS menu. Once this is done reopen the Profilux software from your PC or Notebook and it should work like a charm. Hope this helps those who are a little PC challenged...

![]() Hi Scott,
thanks for your instructions, i think they will help other users. And there is an easier way: It is not neccessary to change the PC's COM-Port-number in the device manager. As i described above you can change the COM-Port in ProfiLuxControl: Click the button "..." next to "Connect" and do the correct settings, please see my attachment "Connections.dat" above. One thing i don't understand: "Next make sure the Profilux is set to COM1 for the serial connection by going into the EXTRAS menu" - but: there you can set the device address, not the COM-Port. The device address can remain "1". ->it is not neccessary to alter this setting - just edit the COM-Port under "Connections" in ProfiLuxControl. |
