Preparing a Device

All devices must communicate using an RS-485 Serial interface as Slaves, by defining a unique Slave ID for their addressing on that RS-485 Serial network.

If communication with the devices is via Ethernet TCP/IP, users must pay attention to the following details:

M90-, M91- and Vision 120-type devices do not support communication in Ethernet mode

230-, 260-, and 280-type Vision devices require the installation of an Ethernet port for communication via TCP/IP

 

This Driver communicates using the UnCmDrv1.dll ActiveX, provided by the device's manufacturer. However, this ActiveX requires several dependencies, which must be pre-installed and registered in the operating system. The next files are required:

ssa3d30.ocx

ComDlg32.ocx

MSComCtl.ocx

AmiCommPro.ocx

MSComm32.ocx

MSWinSck.ocx

UnCmDrv1.dll

 

By default, installing any software by Unitronics Inc. must install all these dependencies in order. However, if any of these files is not registered, users must use the regsvr32 command on a Command Prompt with Administrator privileges, according to the next example.

regsvr32 [name of a file with extension]
