2. Aux Port General Settings

State

Choices: On | Off

Default: On

When disabled, all data sent to the AUX port will be ignored by this I/Q channel.

Data Polarity

Choices: Positive | Negative

Default: Positive

Determines whether AUX input data will be inverted or not.

3. Multiplexed Mode Setup

First Address

Choices: Unassigned | Group n (n: 1 to 15)

Default: Group 1

Selects an additional address (different from broadcast address) to receive AUX I/O data. The data comes with this address value will be transmitted to this I/Q channel.

Second Address

Choices: Unassigned | Group n (n: 1 to 15)

Default: Group 2

Selects another additional address (different from broadcast address) to receive AUX I/O data. The data comes with this address value will be transmitted to this I/Q channel.

4. Dedicated Mode Setup

Aux Port Pin

Selects a serial pin from which the application channel wants to receive AUX port data (dedicated mode only).

Baud Rate

Range:9600 symbol/s to 460800 symbol/s

Default: 115200 symbol/s

Specifies how fast serial data is transmitted (in symbol per second).

5. Aux Pin / Bit Select

PRACH Start Trigger

Choice: AUX0 | AUX1 | AUX2 | AUX3 | AUX4 | AUX5 | AUX6 | AUX7 | AUX8 | AUX9 | AUX10 | AUX11
