Is it possible to program ADAM-4521 to non-addressable mode with only RS-232 port?
Solution:
It is impossible to change the configuration from addressable mode to non-addressable mode without RS485 port. The command for the ADAM-4521 configuration is %AANNTTCCFFPP(CR). AA is the original address, NN is the new address. TT is the type code. Because the type code of the ADAM-4521 is only one kind, you can use the $AA2 to know the type code first. it should be "40". CC, FF, PP are the 8-bit parameters like the following listed.
